More than half of Bath & Body Works stores in the U.S. and Canada are now outside of enclosed shopping centers. Photo: Jeffrey Greenberg/UCG/Universal Images Group/Getty ImagesNational chains are accelerating their exit from malls for other types of retail locations, signaling more trouble for malls as consumers show a growing preference for shorter, more convenient shopping experiences. Jewelers, shoe stores and other specialty retailers are among the operators making the shift, indicating they will continue opening at outdoor, non-mall locations such as grocery-anchored shopping centers and strip malls after finding that they perform better and typically save on costs.

Why America is panicking about shoplifting

New York CNN —“Shoplifting in Great Department Stores.” “The Shoplifting Profession.” “No Mercy to Shoplifters.”These headlines could be from articles today. While shoplifting has seemingly never been a bigger problem than it is now, shoplifting has long captured the public’s attention. Angela Weiss/AFP/Getty ImagesAlthough shoplifting increased in some cities during the first half of the year compared to pre-pandemic levels, there is no clear national rise in shoplifting, according to a new analysis by the Council on Criminal Justice, a nonpartisan criminal justice policy organization. Middle-class women shoplifting in Victorian Britain during the 1800s were the focus of an early panic over shoplifting. Fears spread over middle-class women shoplifting during the early years of department stores.

Auto jobs are booming in the union-hostile South
  + stars: | 2023-09-20 | by ( Nathaniel Meyersohn | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +8 min
New York CNN —Looming over the United Auto Workers strike: Automakers’ continued migration to the anti-union South. Jobs at nonunion EV battery facilities pay less than the roughly $32 an hour that veteran UAW workers make. Since 1990, the South’s share of auto jobs has doubled from around 15% to 30% today, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence. Mostly nonunion EV jobs and manufacturing investments are surging in Southern states led by Republicans. The South has picked up 66% of planned EV jobs, while projects in Midwestern states such as Michigan, Indiana, Kansas and Ohio have combined for 26% of planned jobs, according to S&P Global.

And airlines have made it chaotic by design — so people will pay to get an easier boarding process. Decades ago, airlines used to board first class and use an open boarding process for the main cabin. A better boarding processAirlines have been experimenting with different boarding schemes to try to speed up the process. Jason Steffen, a University of Nevada, Las Vegas physics professor developed a boarding method that boards passengers in rows of two. Southwest Airlines has the fastest boarding process of any major airline by simply allowing people to claim the first available seat.

To maintain profitability, insurance companies have to take in more in monthly premium payments from customers than they pay out in damage claims. This has prompted insurance companies to back out of certain markets or pressure states to raise caps on premiums. Without robust rate caps such as those in California, insurance costs have risen by over 200% while DeSantis has been in office. He also signed legislation in December that protects insurance companies from liability claims and disincentivizes homeowners from filing claims to begin with. Despite these policies, insurance prices have continued to go up and insurers have continued to flee the market.

Walmart's delivery platform, Spark, has tripled its delivery-driver workforce over the past year. Insider spoke to six Spark drivers across the US and a Walmart employee who works with Spark drivers. "We encourage drivers to report any concerns to Spark Driver platform driver support so we can investigate and take the appropriate action." Earlier this year, Spark drivers protested at a Walmart Supercenter in Illinois over what they described as a prevalence of drivers who use bots on Spark. Several Spark drivers said that different stores they deliver for have different policies for checking drivers' IDs before dispensing orders.

Researchers found what appeared to be pendants made from the now-extinct giant sloth. It suggests humans lived in South America thousands of years earlier than previously thought. "It's very likely that multiple waves of people came to Americas," she said, according to The AP. Giant ground sloths could reach 13 feet long, weighed more than a thousand pounds and were equivalent in size to an Indian elephant. It walked on all fours and was one of the largest creatures in South America, per the report.

Ben and other drivers have some theories about why riders aren't as generous as they used to be. Ben, a full-time Uber and Uber Eats driver for five years, said he'd worked as many as 90 hours in one week to make ends meet. Last year, Ben earned roughly $77,000 pretax driving for Uber and Uber Eats. Sergio AvedianUltimately, Avedian said Uber riders' tipping habits today could be traced to the company's decisions several years ago. In-app tipping wasn't even an option for Uber riders until 2017, despite drivers pushing for it for years.
Bribing flight attendants with candy or gift cards won't get you upgraded to first class, he said. Flight attendants have a word for that, according to Henderson, and it's not something you want to be called: "gate lice." "That's one thing I can say about all flight attendants across the board. Moreso than treats, Henderson said flight attendants really appreciate passengers who take the time to thank them at the end of the flight. "Even just so much saying thanks for keeping us safe, or thanks for all you do," he told Insider.
But if there's anybody who can settle the age-old debate, it's flight attendants. Five out of six flight attendants interviewed by Insider all agree: you have the right to recline. "It's definitely not rude to recline your seat," flight attendant Andrew Kothlow of the blog "Two Guys on a Plane" told Insider. "In first class reclining your seat isn't so rude because there's space to recline, but reclining in the main cabin of the plane is," the flight attendant told Insider. Jeffrey Greenberg/Universal Images Group via Getty ImagesBut the passenger etiquette the flight attendants demonstrated more concern toward was their boldly bare-footed customers — and for good reason.

This year brought a flurry of automation announcements in the restaurant industry as operators scrambled to find solutions to a shrinking workforce and climbing wages. Three-quarters of restaurant operators are facing staffing shortages that keep them from operating at full capacity, according to the National Restaurant Association. Many restaurant operators hiked wages to attract workers, but that pressured profits at a time when food costs were also climbing. "Automation is one word, and a lot of people go right to robotics and a robot flipping burgers or making fries. The labor questionAutomation often faces pushback from workers and labor advocates, who see it as a way for employers to eliminate jobs.
