Amazon To Cover 100% of College Tuition for US Hourly Employees – Slashdot
Amazon said Thursday it will offer to pay 100% of college tuition for its 750,000 U.S. hourly employees. From a report: The e-commerce giant is following the lead of other large U.S. companies who are dangling perks like education benefits or more pay to woo workers in a tight job market. Starting in January 2022, Amazon said it will cover the cost of college tuition, fees and textbooks for hourly employees in its operations network after 90 days of employment. It will also begin covering high school diploma programs, GEDs and English as a second language certifications for employees. Operations workers include employees in Amazon’s sprawling network of warehouses and distribution centers. The benefit will apply to hundreds of education institutions across the country, Amazon said. Amazon previously offered to pay for 95% of tuition, fees and textbooks for hourly associates through its career choice program. Rival retailers, including Walmart and Target, have also beefed up their education benefits in recent months. Target in August rolled out a program that covers the cost of associate and undergraduate degrees at select schools. Walmart in July said it would pay 100% of college

A usted
La magia de las letras consiste, quizá, en impregnarlas con un tanto de usted y de mí, de tal manera que, en las páginas del cuaderno de notas o del libro, otros descubran y sientan, al leerlas, la locura de un amor convertido en poema. El encanto de las palabras se basa, tal vez, en resumirla a usted, con todo lo que es y significa, cuando hablo de mí, y en sintetizarme al definirla. Somos uno y otro. El encanto de los textos, impresos o no, se debe, en parte, a que se trata de vivencias y de sueños, de ilusiones y de suspiros. de pausas y de capítulos. El sortilegio de nuestros poemarios se debe, creo, a que uno o cualquiera, al leerlos, adivina el nombre de usted y el mío. Cuando trazo una letra y…

California’s unvaccinated young hit by COVID hospitalizations – Los Angeles Times
At Fountain Valley Regional Hospital in Orange County, the average age of people admitted for hospital treatment in January was 64. Now it’s 46, Dr. Timothy Korber, the hospital’s medical director of emergency services, said recently. Dr. Rais Vohra, Fresno County’s interim health officer, said people are “in so much danger if you’re not vaccinated right now.” “We really are seeing just many, many people that are unvaccinated — young people, in their 20s, 30s and 40s — that are landing in the hospitals right now,” Vohra said. “That could be you. That could be someone that you love, someone that you know.” In Orange County, “the overall pattern is that it’s the 30-, 40-, 50-year-olds who are getting hospitalized, compared to previous surges when it’s really been 65 and over,” Dr. Regina Chinsio-Kwong, a deputy health officer, said at a briefing last week.
