| Hello, Daily Money readers. Jayme Deerwester with you again this Thursday morning. |
| BOOMERANG EMPLOYEES: The Great Resignation , as it has become known, has led to massive disruption and record numbers of job openings. But for former workers who took an exit ramp as the pandemic took hold, the dream of endless days on the links, snoozing or watching old TV reruns may not have proven fulfilling. Whether it's for extra income, a chance to mingle with treasured colleagues or to simply fill a significant void, some of those who left their jobs at the start of the pandemic are trickling back. |
| "It's always easier to go back to somewhere where you were comfortable," said Michelle Reisdorf, a senior regional director for recruiting firm Robert Half. "It's such an easy transition back into the workplace." |
| 💡 INSIGHT OF THE DAY: If you can afford to make any charitable donations before the end of the year, you can take advantage of a tax break – even if you take the standard deduction on your taxes. A married couple taking the standard deduction is allowed to claim up to $600 for cash contributions while a single individual, including married individuals filing separate returns, can claim a deduction of up to $300 for cash contributions. The tax break expires Jan. 1. |

| NO MOOD MUSIC TODAY. Instead, you're getting a classic video. If you're a "Top Gear" fan, it probably came as no surprise to you that Toyota topped the list of cars most likely to reach 200,000 miles. After all, the original hosts tried – and failed – to kill a Hilux (AKA Tacoma) pickup truck. Watch as the favorite truck of terrorists worldwide survives parking on a causeway at high tide, being set on fire and parked on top of a tower about to be demolished. |
