Smith’s appearance with their two children, Jaden and Willow, and his son Trey Smith, was apparently a surprise for Pinkett Smith. “It is a sloppy public experiment in unconditional love,” he said, a description that prompted Pinkett Smith to double over in laughter. “Will and me are good,” Pinkett Smith told Laura Coates of CNN, who moderated Wednesday night’s discussion. Pinkett Smith told The Associated Press that she is feeling free since opening up about the separation. “It’s a weight off my shoulders, honestly,” Pinkett Smith said in an AP interview this week.

AdvertisementAdvertisementIn today's big story, we're looking at why some tech workers don't love their jobs anymore. Many factors led to the shift, from significant layoffs in Big Tech to in-office mandates and financial pressure due to high interest rates. AdvertisementAdvertisement(Interestingly enough, Terrazas writes that workers in non-tech roles — like human resources and marketing — report the highest job satisfaction at Big Tech companies.) But it feels like tech workers themselves will end up having to do a bit of recalibration. Working in Big Tech has become a job like any other corporate gig.
