But while the companies are doing better, the workers they rely on are facing more competition for the finite number of gig jobs available, and are still struggling to make ends meet as rising expenses are offsetting any increase in income, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/technology\/2022\/08\/07\/gig-economy-inflation\/\">Washington Post<\/a>reports, citing gig workers and economists. Several workers the Post spoke with also said they\u2019ve been getting fewer and smaller tips (since customers aren\u2019t immune to inflation, either).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Remember:<\/strong> Gig workers are attracted to the proposition of high pay for flexible work they can do in addition to their primary source of income, but gig jobs typically don\u2019t offer typical employment benefits such as health coverage or job protection.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"grey-line\">\n<p><a class=\"content-anchor\" id=\"tldr-story-04\"><\/a> <strong>Frustrating workplace? Go ahead and vent \u2014 but choose your ears wisely:<\/strong> While workplace frustrations are no secret, airing them out to the wrong person or via the wrong medium can quickly backfire, work and life columnist Rachel Feintzeig writes for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/the-right-way-to-vent-at-work-11659904393?mod=hp_featst_pos4\">Wall Street Journal<\/a>. If you want someone to confide in, pick a colleague you trust, someone who isn\u2019t a boss \u2014 or your junior, someone you know you can talk to without your complaints and frustrations becoming the talk of the office.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Most importantly, focus your rant on yourself and your emotions, rather than<\/strong><strong> complaining about a certain individual.<\/strong> And definitely don\u2019t take to your Twitter account to air out your grievances: \u201cAnything written will always be risky.\u201d One psychologist recommends recording yourself yelling on your phone and then listening to it again before deleting it. The process of listening to yourself can give some perspective on the situation and your feelings towards it, they suggest.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID}

Banner of Heaven traces events leading to the grueseome 1984 murder of Mormon mother Brenda Lafferty (playsed by Daisy Edgar-Jones) and her 15-month-old daughter. The search for the culprit leads Detective Jeb Pyre (played by Emmy-nominated Andrew Garfield), a devout Mormon himself, to question his beliefs. As Pyre works on the case and investigates the Lafferty family, an influential Latter-Day Saint (LDS) clan, he discovers the troubling truth behind the LDS and its values.

Penned by Bryan Burrough and John Helyar, Barbarians at the Gate follows one of the 1980s\u2019 biggest business scandals, starting with the merger of a tobacco company and a packaged foods player (already not a great idea) to create RJR Nabisco, to the era of CEO F. Ross Johnson, during which the company\u2019s stock performance plummeted but the company\u2019s management team continued to see perks. Johnson eventually proposed a leveraged buyout of the company, kicking off a bidding war that raised plenty of questions and eyebrows about the ethics of Wall Street.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/enterprise-recommends\/\">Enterprise Recommends<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/on-the-tube-tonight\/\">On The Tube Tonight<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/sports\/\">sports<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"552048\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"552048\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">4<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">GO WITH THE FLOW<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2022\/08\/08\/what-the-markets-are-doing-on-8-august-2022\/\">\r\n                            What the markets are doing on 8 August, 2022                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2022\/08\/08\/what-the-markets-are-doing-on-8-august-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();

Among the 1k people polled, some 35% said they\u2019ve used tappable smartphone wallets, 27% indicated they\u2019ve used a digital money transfer service and 24% have used a QR code of some form.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Digital payments are on the rise: <\/strong>Almost two-thirds of respondents indicated that they\u2019ve increased their use \u201dof at least one digital payment method in the last year,\u201d the report says, noting also that the portion of Egyptians testing out a new service in the past year sits above the current global average of 61%. This includes the use of digital cards, SMS payments, money transfer applications and instant payment services. Even more significant is the fact that 15% of those surveyed in the report said that they used banknotes even less in the past year than they did previously.<\/p>\n<p><strong>But let\u2019s not get ahead of ourselves: Cash is still king in Egypt.<\/strong> Though e-payments and fintech have grown in the Egyptian market in recent years, cash still accounts for the bulk of transactions. In 2020, when the covid-19 pandemic fuelled wider adoption of digital payments, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cardsinternational.com\/uncategorized\/country-reports-sweden-egypt-and-belgium\/\" style=\"color: rgb(252, 118, 1);\">three-quarters of the country\u2019s payments<\/a> were still performed using cash.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Security is still the biggest concern when it comes to digital payments: <\/strong>Some 39% of those polled in Egypt indicate that security is their primary concern when it comes to determining which new digital payment method to use. Other considerations, such as reward programs, promotions and accessibility, are also among the top priorities for Egyptian consumers. Some 31% of respondents said social and environmental benefits are taken into account when selecting a new service, although it remains unclear just how significant either of these factors are in people\u2019s decision-making processes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Short-term financing schemes are gaining momentum in Egypt: <\/strong>Some 81% of respondents said that they are currently familiar with buy now, pay later options and half of them would be comfortable using these services to pay off larger purchases in installments. \u201cConsumers also find BNPL useful for unique use cases, including as a budgeting and financial planning tool,\u201d the report said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2026and so are account-to-account payments: <\/strong>Most consumers ( 80%) are now comfortable directly linking their bank accounts to merchant sites for future purchases, the survey found, citing \u201cgreater agility to optimize bill payments, prioritizing control, flexibility and convenience,\u201d as reasons for more widespread adoption of these kinds of payment methods.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Part of that comes down to access to more convenient bill payment options:<\/strong> Two-thirds indicated that flexible bill payment options, where the exact dates of recurring monthly bills can be adjusted to accommodate for irregular income streams, would be of interest to them. More than two-thirds of respondents also said that they would like automatic payment options for household bills.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Growing confidence in fintech is also playing a part: <\/strong>More than 60% of those surveyed said they trust using mobile apps to transfer money from their phones to other parties, though less than half said they were willing to share their financial data to access personal finance and payment services.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Most of that growth is coming from Gen Z and millenials <\/strong>who are more likely to use digital or contactless payment methods than older generations. Some 40% of younger consumers in Egypt are likely to have used a new payment method, like a tap to pay card or a wearable device, whereas only 26% Gen Xers are likely to have done the same. Part of this generational gap exists because of a divergence in perceptions of security and data privacy associated with digital payments, which younger generations tend to be less skeptical of, the report says.<\/p>\n<p><strong>But covid-19 has also had a hand in driving the popularity of new payment methods: <\/strong>Almost two-thirds of respondents to <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/0012118e-9059-4572-a128-4d1d10c329b1\" style=\"color: rgb(252, 118, 1);\">Mastercard\u2019s 2021 survey<\/a> on spending habits in the region said they have tried a new payment method they would not have used had it not been for the pandemic. Not only that but the report found that over half of consumers would avoid businesses that didn't accept electronic payments and 68% said they were more likely to stick with businesses that offer different payment options.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And we could be looking at even greater demand for noncash payment options in the not so distant future: <\/strong>The MENA Fintech Association <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/efb05722-ac49-407f-bd41-b11265a358ba\" style=\"color: rgb(252, 118, 1);\">earlier this year<\/a> projected that nearly seven in 10 payment transactions in the Middle East and North Africa will be digital in 2023 and set the pace of digital payments growth at a compound annual growth rate of 20%. These figures would put digital payments on track to surpass USD 20 bn next year, which is more than double the size of digital transactions tracked in the region during 2019.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!--
