Bruh... This is the craziness we all want and need to avoid by having another skill. This is INSANE.
An Ohio restaurant 'forced' servers to work 60 hours a week for just $10 in wages plus tips, the Department of Labor says Servers were "forced" to cash their paychecks, pay almost all their wages back in cash, and live off tips instead, the DOL said.

This is a young me in 1980something, sporting my Captain America tee. So, you already know what's going down this weekend . Kang is coming, people. Thanos is gone, but Kang is coming.

PT3 Quick question: Did you know that you can license any content you create, and ESPECIALLY any content you create that maybe a client stiffs you on? No payment = no rights. You can then take your overstock of content and license it to other publishers.

Don't you love this super hilarious, but super powerful, quote from one of the Rockys?
What rights do your clients get to your content when you're hired as a or ?
Well... that's the part you negotiate when you take the job. At the end of the day, the way in which rights are assigned is up to you as the content creator. But... just know that in many instances, your clients will expect you to assign to them ALL the rights to the content you create, even if it's just for the next 12 months.
Grateful for another day, another chance to get "it" done! Another chance to get "it" right.
Let's GO!!
Alright, rockstars- how did it go today?
