After a year of negotiations, more than 1,000 concession workers at Fenway Park and the neighboring MGM Music Hall secured a new union contract that supporters say provides better wages, clearer staffing protocols, and stronger job protections against automation, such as self-checkout machines.
‘A landmark agreement’: Fenway concession workers ratify new contract with Aramark, citing wage and staffing gains - The Boston Globe
The new agreement caps off a contentious bargaining process that included a three-day strike during a July homestand against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Billionaires are considering cutting or reducing their ties to California by the end of the year because of a proposed ballot measure that could tax the state’s wealthiest residents.

Look, I'm sure that Nolan's adaptation of "The Odyssey" will be fun, but I highly doubt it will be as good as the original.
