Discover the funny, surprising history of changing the clocks! Learn how clocks and Daylight Saving Time evolved from a joke to a global practice.

I walk down the street, sit at my desk, hit the gym—and everywhere I go, technology follows. Notifications, AI, algorithms… convenient, even comforting. But who is really in control? Am I making my own decisions, or is technology nudging me without me noticing?

Valentine’s Day is a reminder that relationships matter. But when relationships develop at work, the conversation shifts from personal to professional. The recent Coldplay concert incident showed how quickly a private dynamic can become a public governance issue. The real lesson isn’t about romance. It’s about leadership responsibility, transparency, and culture. As HR professionals and business leaders, we don’t manage emotions. We manage risk, fairness, and trust.

As the holidays approach and winter weather kicks in, it’s the perfect time to enjoy a party, relax, and spread good cheer. But it’s also a time when overspending, waste, and icy roads can sneak up on us.

Here’s the cold truth: about 90% of U.S. homes use some form of heating, and nearly half of all home energy costs go straight to staying warm. So, if your wallet starts shivering in January, you’re not alone. The good news? A few small changes can make a big difference.

Strange ways people are unleashing artificial intelligence this fall

Every October, people around the world celebrate death — but not always in the same way. For some, it’s about ghosts and candy. For others, it’s about honoring loved ones or even trying out their own funeral. It’s a strange, beautiful reminder that how we face death often reflects how we live

Our team had an incredible time at the SCTE Expo, where leaders from across the broadband, telecom, and cable industries gathered to discuss the future of connectivity. The energy was electric — and so was the passion for sustainability.

Have you ever wondered what happens to that old laptop gathering dust in your closet, or the phone charger tangled in a drawer that you haven’t used in years? You’re not alone. Most of us hold onto outdated electronics because we’re not sure what to do with them. That’s where community e-waste recycling events come in—like the ones we host at AVAY.

Fall is here! The air turns crisp, the leaves transform into fiery shades of red and gold, and everywhere you go, you can smell the unmistakable scent of pumpkin spice. Fall is a season that invites cozy sweaters, hot drinks, and—if you’re up for it—a little bit of weirdness. At AVAY, we love celebrating the season in ways that are fun, sustainable, and educational.

Every household has that drawer—the one stuffed with old phones, tangled chargers, and gadgets that haven’t seen the light of day in years. Multiply that by millions of households, and it adds up fast: the world generated 62 million tons of e-waste in 2022, but less than one-quarter was properly recycled. That means billions in valuable materials are literally being thrown away. According to the United Nations, 2022’s e-waste contained $91 billion worth of precious metals an

New pencils, fresh notebooks, first-day jitters... you’ve got enough on your plate, right? Yet tucked quietly in your home is a growing pile of chargers, old tablets, maybe a relic smartphone from last school year. This year, let’s give that tech a happy retirement—before the backpack chaos begins.

We talk a lot about smart tools and smart recycling at AVAY—but let’s take a moment to talk about smart living. Artificial Intelligence isn't just for coders or tech companies anymore. It’s becoming a practical, everyday tool that anyone can use—especially adults who want to save time, get more organized, or make better decisions. And it doesn’t require knowing how it all works behind the scenes.

When people think about recycling, they imagine bins, cardboard, e-waste, maybe a baler or two. But at AVAY, we know the real magic behind our operation isn’t just the machines—it’s our people. And our people come from all over the world. We’re not exaggerating. On any given day in our warehouse, you’ll hear conversations in Spanish, French and English—sometimes all in the same breakroom. We’ve got team members from over 10 different countries, all working side by side to ke

It’s official: Labubu has taken over the world — and yes, we’re talking about that quirky, snaggle-toothed creature from Pop Mart blind boxes. From Cincinnati  to Singapore, people are waiting in long lines, spending big money, and totally losing their chill for these tiny toys.
