I have been away for quite a while, but I’ve stored up a bunch of random stories from around the web. First was a story from Harvard Business about a unique practice at Zappos, the online shoe and apparel retailer. After a short trial period, they offer every employee cash to walk away from the job.
It is a straight forward concept. If someone is willing to quit for $1,000, Zappos feels they lack the passion Zappos wants in its workforce.
I do wonder, has the recession altered the take rate? With the job market getting tougher, maybe they will need a bigger check to lure employees lacking the emotional connection Zappos wants in its staff.
Another question, how much would you have to be paid to quit your job?

Skip Hop Studio Diaper Tote Bag is awesome.So several pockets - and also not really those modest, worthless pockets, either. Almost all of the pockets are a excellent size and truly aid maintain everything organized. The handles are a excellent length and fit nicely over the actual shoulder; the handle straps also remain place on my arm, which is actually important when you’re taking a infant. The bag looks great, too. Not as well fancy, but not too casual. (I’ve it in black) The material is soft (can’t consider of a greater word) so it’s effortless to squeeze in to tight spaces - but yet it’s sturdy. I’ve a Fleurville Lexi carrier and I love it, too, but this bag is actually type of inflexible. I consider this Skip*Hop may grow to be my everyday tote. It’s a little bit significant - so if you’re not really in to substantial bags this might be better as an over-night baby diaper tote.
