In this interview I learned that chicken and cheese pulls are everything in fast food right now, plus all about the struggles of Starbucks and McDonald's ... and so much more. Great fast-food conversation with @heatherhaddon of the @WSJ for @Slate

Heather Haddon joins Emily Peck to discuss the current challenges and trends she’s reported on in the fast food industry.

Must-read by @EmilyRPeck on the dawn of the “forever layoff”: companies making job cuts in small batches — partly to avoid scrutiny. “These numbers likely understate the trend — since smaller firms don't have to report firings…” https://t.co/WX3XUtagFn

I was lucky to be on the show, and get to listen to these calls from folks dealing with rising costs — and to hear Gbenga and Jennifer's smart insights!
Had the pleasure of being on @wamu885 1a call-in show with @EmilyRPeck & @JenniferLudden. A lot of people are concern about costs of a lot of things like healthcare, childcare, and groceries.
