| GDP Grows at 2.8 Percent Annual Rate in the Fourth Quarter
|
February 1, 2012 |
The Commerce Department reported last week that the nation's gross domestic product (GDP) -- the value of all goods and services produced -- grew at an annual rate of 2.8 percent during the fourth quarter of last year.
As we get closer to the November Presidential election, the rhetoric will get even more heated. Don't take your politics to work; leave them at home.
Whether it's a stinky co-worker or an inappropriately dressed assistant, you're guaranteed to run into some awkward circumstances at work from time to time.
Being laid off or fired may make you feel like a terminal failure. But the experience can be used in a productive way, even if your performance had nothing to do with you.
Among technology companies with a market value of more than $100 million, almost 50 increased employment by more than half in the past two years.
