The Wall Street Journal reported that Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick told senior managers he'd consider leaving the company if he couldn't fix its culture of misconduct "with speed."

How Do You Feel About Being Required To Show Your Vaccination Status When Applying For A New Job?
Back in September, President Joe Biden ordered a vaccination mandate for companies with over 100 employees. He added that those who did not receive their shots must undergo weekly testing. Biden chastised holdouts who protested against getting their shots, saying, “We’ve been patient, but our patience is wearing thin, and your refusal has cost all of us.” Biden said he was becoming “frustrated” with the 80 million Americans who have not complied, despite the surge in the Delta variant and an alarming increase in cases and filled hospital beds.

Questions To Ask Before You Quit Your Job
In a sign that the so-called Great Resignation is still going strong, a record 4.43 million people — 3% of the labor force — voluntarily left jobs in September, according to the Labor Department’s most recent data. That broke the record set just a month before, when 4.27 million people quit their jobs.
