The Daily Money
 
Friday, October 29

Good morning, Daily Money friends, it's Nathan wishing you a happy Friday!

💉 Planning a walk-in flu shot sometime soon? It could be hard to get one.

Drug stores are increasingly turning away customers for walk-in flu shots, saying they need to schedule an appointment instead. And appointments often aren't available for days.

The reason? Pharmacies, like so many other employers, are facing labor shortages.

The problem is that experts believe we could be facing a bad flu season, so we need to inoculate as many people as possible. Here's my story on the situation.

💡 INSIGHT OF THE DAY: The Great Resignation is taking a toll on workers who've been left behind. With 55% of U.S. workers saying at least one colleague has left in the last six months, more than half of the remaining employees say they've been burdened with more work since then. That could lead to even more people quitting in what one expert calls a "vicious cycle," our Paul Davidson reports.

📰 And here are more stories you won't want to miss:

1. Facebook unveiled its new corporate name as it seeks to distance itself from its troubles: It's .... Meta.

2. Critics "never Meta worse idea": Social media erupted with derision and jokes about Facebook's new name 

3. Trying to decide which cryptocurrency trading platform to use? Here are three reasons to pick Coinbase over Robinhood.

4. American Airlines has banned a passenger after flight attendant was injured during a flight. A passenger allegedly hit her.

5. Are you part of the gig economy? It might be good to automate your quarterly tax payments.

6. McDonald's McRib returns Monday. But you might be able to get the barbecue sandwich early.

🥪 I've never had the McRib, but maybe it's time to take the plunge.
