Today’s Snark Factor 3 in 3 has a little bit of everything: fake spring, disappearing change, and young adults showing up to job interviews with backup.
First, March does what March always does. It gives people one decent day, lets a guy fire up the grill in cargo shorts, and then comes back with snow and wind like winter just remembered it left something in the house.
Then there’s the penny. After all these years, we may finally be admitting that the penny has mostly been a copper-colored floor decoration. Now, states are figuring out how to round cash purchases, which means somewhere, right now, a man is preparing to fight over two cents on principle.
And finally, the hiring process. A new survey says some Gen Z applicants are getting parental help with résumés, employer contact, and even interviews. Nothing says “independent self-starter” like your mother asking about dental coverage before you’ve even sat down.
Give it a listen.
