It's that time of year again, April 1st....How are you guys attempting to prevent your team members from performing stupid pranks on each other? Yesterday, I had to sit down our team of grown ass professionals and remind them that this is their place of work and to keep the pranks at home. (Things got out of hand last year, so we've banned April Fools pranks).

Why would this be an April Fools prank? It's a serious question.

I work in a professional environment, and I don't have to worry about it.

Advice appreciated: I want to sublease my apartment so that I can rent elsewhere and pay less. I had to move in a short amount of time and it was during the period where there was a high demand for housing, & leases everywhere were expensive so I signed what I thought was fairly cheap in comparison to what was out there. However I found something this month that will cut costs by 30%. How do I go about finding someone to sublease my place?

Anybody else noticed recruiters are only proactively reaching out about hybrid/on-site roles nowadays?

It's almost as if people don't want to be in offices anymore so that's why it's difficult for them to fill those roles.
Sidenote: recruiters, you can see on my LI profile that I'm remote. In the "What jobs are you interested in" field you can see I'm only interested in remote roles.
So, why are you reaching out to me about jobs in a city 3 hours away that's 100% onsite and w/out even a ReLo?

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers.

So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)
