PODCAST: Radio Shack bonuses

The right time to strike, Radio Shack hands out bonuses, and technology helps seniors work longer.

If you’re going to demand a raise, are you going to do it when the economy is down, or are you going to do it now? Why striking when the going is good can be a smart move. Plus, Radio Shack wants to pay big bucks in retention bonuses to some key executives and high level staff. How is the bankrupt electronics device retailer justifying this expense and how likely is it that the bankruptcy court will allow it? We’ll also talk about technology that is helping to elongate careers and kick-start second careers as workers age.
