*How many of you legitimately never iron?*

Going back to the office after the Christmas and new year, i have noticed a lot of people clearly never iron their clothes before work. For instance a bloke had the fold lines from the new shirt packet, a woman with creased up trousers etc They all look a bit disheveled to me submitted by /u/Craft_on_draft to r/AskUK [link] [comments]

*Citigroup is planning a major cost-cutting move amid high expenses*

Citigroup, the third-largest bank in the U.S., is planning to simplify its organization, and that includes dropping 20,000 employees in the “medium term.” The restructuring is part of Citigroup CEO Jane Fraser’s new business model, which was announced in September 2023, and the new revelation comes at a time when the bank also reported a net loss of $1.8 billion in the fourth quarter.Related: Twitch CEO announces 'difficult' decision, and its content creators aren’t happy Citigroup is expecting that the 20,000 reduction in headcount will reduce the company’s expenses by up to $2.5 billion. Even though the move may reduce costs, Citigroup is also expecting to take a $700 million to $1 billion hit due to severance and other costs related to the restructuring. When announcing future layoffs in September last year, Fraser said that the change will remove “unnecessary complexity” at the company. “These changes eliminate unnecessary complexity across the bank, increase accountability for delivering excellent client service and strengthen our ability to benefit from the natural linkages that exist amongst our businesses, all with an eye toward delivering on our medium-term targets and our Transformation,” said Fraser in a press release. CEO of Citi, Jane Fraser, speaks during a panel on tech and finance at the Global Hong Kong Global Financial Leaders Investment Summit on Nov. 7, 2023 in Hong Kong. NurPhoto/Getty Images The year 2024, which has been only two weeks long, has so far kicked off with a plethora of layoffs from large organizations. For example, on Jan. 10 Amazon announced hundreds of job cuts on the same day that Google announced that it has shrunk its headcount by hundreds across its hardware and engineering teams. Many companies have cited cost-cutting and reprioritizing their businesses as the reasoning behind the recent layoffs. Citigroup has recently faced an increase in expenses that has taken a negative toll on its pockets. The bank has reported its fourth-quarter earnings for 2023 which shows that the company garnered a revenue of $17.4 billion during the quarter, but took a major loss of $18.7 billion which the bank attributed to a multitude of costs. Some of the fees include $780 million from severance and other reorganization efforts, $1.3 billion in charges related to a “transfer risk” in Russia and Argentina, a $1.7 billion FDIC special assessment and other fees. Fraser has called her company’s earnings for the fourth-quarter “very disappointing” but claims that the bank has made “substantial progress” in “simplifying” its organization in 2023, according to its fourth-quarter earnings press release.

*Act fast: The Apple Watch Series 9 just dropped back down to its Black Friday pricing, and it won't last long*

TheStreet aims to feature only the best products and services. If you buy something via one of our links, we may earn a commission. If you missed out on scoring an Apple Watch Series 9 during the holidays, Amazon is coming to the rescue. The online retailer is dropping the Series 9 (which was at the center of some controversy a few weeks ago) back to its Black Friday pricing. You can now get the 41mm GPS at just $329 and the 45mm GPS for $359—a $70 or 18% discount off the standard prices of $399 and $429. And if you’re signed up for Amazon Prime, you’ll get free, fast shipping. Previous discounts on the Apple Watch Series 9 have been known to sell out quickly, especially in the pink colorway. So if you’re eager to use the ‘Double Tap’ gesture, track a workout, or enjoy the always-on experience, we recommend adding to cart soon. This represents the lowest price we’ve seen the Series 9 drop to thus far in 2024, and for most of 2023, except for one ultra-rare all-time-low discount.Apple Watch Series 9 41mm GPS, $329 (was $399) at Amazon Courtesy of Amazon Like previous-generation Apple Watches, the Series 9 comes in two sizes—41mm and 45mm. The display is always on and gets plenty bright so that you can make out visuals and text in any viewing conditions. Both watches are basically the same other than size, with navigation, applications, Siri, and Apple Pay all working seamlessly thanks to the S9 processor inside. The Series 9 is just as fast as competing smartwatches from the likes of Samsung and just as fast as the Ultra 2, which boasts a larger display and more rugged design. Thanks to Apple’s latest health sensor stack on the rear, the Series 9 can track heart rate, take an ECG (electrocardiogram), measure blood oxygen levels, and read your skin temperature to identify trends. Additionally, you can track any conceivable workout from your wrist, like HIIT, dance, walking, swimming, and biking. Apple Watch Series 9 45mm GPS, $359 (was $429) at Amazon Courtesy of Amazon The star feature of the Series 9 is “Double Tap.” Beyond using the Digital Crown or just touching the screen, Double Tap allows you to tap your index finger and thumb together to quickly trigger an action. You can use it to pick up a phone call, respond to a message, pause a workout, or control music playback. It’s pretty great, and you can read more about the experience in our full review here. You can still expect all-day battery life from the Series 9, and Apple includes a fast-charging puck in the box. Just be sure you have a USB-C wall plug, like this one from Anker or an Apple-made one. Apple Watch Series 9 comes in five colors, and you can save on all of them at Amazon: PRODUCT (RED), Midnight, Starlight, Pink, and Silver included. Since they’re all $70 off at $329 or $359 for the 41mm or 45mm, the only thing left to decide is your size and color. We’d probably shop quickly. The Series 9 is the no. 1 bestseller in smartwatches on Amazon and has been purchased over 4,000 times in the last month. You can also save on select Apple Watch Series 9 models with both GPS and Cellular connectivity at Amazon.Apple Watch Series 9 41mm GPS + Cellular, $429 (was $499) at AmazonApple Watch Series 9 45mm GPS + Cellular, $459 (was $529) at Amazon
