Here Come the Dog Days
This week, millennials say “buh buy” to work, Facebook gets
worked and that $27 you spent on a bottle of Gwyneth Paltrow’s “… protective
mist designed to shield you from negative energy and safeguard your aura”
probably isn’t working. Luckily, Michael Scott and some partyin’ pups are here
for the nightshift.
- Beats the
Break Room: While the LCWA office is far more functional than the Scranton
branch of Dunder Mifflin (trust us), starting today Replay Lincoln Park is hosting
a “The Office”- themed pop-up bar. Replay says there will be “… themed drinks,
photo ops, and hidden Easter eggs to find.”
- Network
Disconnect: The Cambridge Analytica scandal (among others) appears
to be catching up to Facebook’s bottom line. With executives warning that
profit margins will decrease for years due to costs infringed by improving
privacy and implementing other safeguards, shares lost as much as 25 percent of
their value this week.
- Goop-Oops:
From bee-sting therapy and lymph flow-slowing brushes, to salt shampoo and $80 rose
quartz water to give you “positive energy,” Gwyneth Paltrow’s often criticized
– and extremely profitable – wellness company Goop has hired a fact-checker
after its products’ health claims continue to be denounced as modern-day snake
oil.
- Raise the
WOOF: Help your “Hound Dog” get ready for the weekend with this
pooch-packed Spotify playlist, courtesy of Mashable. If your party turns into a
“Three Dog Night,” you may be inclined to ask your neighbors “Who Let the Dogs
Out?”
- “It was just sooo
awkward”: Millennialls (sorry) are at it again! “Ghosting” – an act
usually reserved for a bad Tinder date, has now moved into the workplace. From
not showing up on the first day of a new job, missing interviews with no notice
and even just disappearing from a current role, things are getting spooky –
potentially forcing changes in hiring processes.
