What TV show got your state/city/country wrong? I’m three episodes deep into Mayor of Kingstown which supposedly is set in Michigan. I fully recognize that “Kingstown” isn’t a real place in Michigan but I’m not even sure what it’s supposed to be an analogue for. They already featured a death penalty episode but Michigan doesn’t have the death penalty. The city full of prisons would be Jackso…

My wife just got offered the opportunity to go 1099 at her job. My wife has been with the company for over a year as an office manager with a current salary of $85,000. She just text me saying her boss asked if she would like to switch from a W2 employee to a 1099, which seems like a strange question to be honest.
