Listen "Ep. 38 - Big Problems, Littler Solutions"
Episode Synopsis
After a short break, What’s with the Pineapple is back on the saddle. There are a lot of new regulations, or landmines, on the horizon for the hospitality industry and luckily we have Mickey Chichester with Littler, the MRLA Legal Center partner that specializes in labor and employment law. Mickey is here to help listeners navigate the new overtime rule, how to start preparing for the July 1 change, the ban on non-compete agreements, and the new test for independent contractor classifications. Beyond Mickey’s irreplaceable expertise, Justin and Emily are being outshined this week as they welcome a third host to the show. Everyone, meet Rodney. The new co-host helps the host recap the NFL Draft, discuss the growth of hotels in the U.S., talk about the new (celebrity) Board Member targets (hint: Mom’s Spaghetti), and provide updates on the budget placeholders including Pure Michigan funding for 2025.
