When I started my job, I struggled to connect with my coworkers and hid behind my desk. A therapist told me to find common ground with my coworkers; I learned we shared a love of music. It was hard to maintain those new friendships when I left the company, but I'm working on it. At work, I wanted to talk to people and make friendships with coworkers in the office. Luckily, my colleagues invited me to a work happy hour a week after my time at the company ended.

AdvertisementAdvertisementThe trial judge in the New York civil fraud case against former President Donald Trump on Tuesday issued a gag order against the former president after he repeatedly attacked the court clerk in social media posts. The gag order was issued in the $250 million civil fraud case in New York against Trump, in which Justice Engoron has already found that Trump deceived investors by falsely inflating his property values, committing years of fraud. The more Trump violates the rules, the more the judge has to act to maintain integrity and control," Alexander said.

Diaz, a Black man, was hired as a contract worker at Tesla in 2015 through a staffing agency. Diaz and Tesla sought a retrial to decide damages after Judge William H. Orrick reduced the amount to $15 million. "No Black man in 2015 should ever be subjected," Alexander said, "to this plantation mentality workplace." The plaintiffs asked the jury to consider punitive damages around $150 million for Tesla, and to award Diaz $6.3 million in past non-economic damages, and $2 million in future non-economic damages. As CNBC has previously reported, where it is legal to do so, Tesla has compelled employees to agree to mandatory arbitration.

"I think it is a little bit to early to talk about who is involved in the tournament and who is not," said Walsh. "We should get the tournament on paper and start the conversation going forward what it will look like."
