An Excel table was the problem. Ignacio Zaldívar, an Adif worker, made it for his own consumption. He never thought he would go beyond the walls of his office to reach the Supreme Court. In it he wrote “presidency” next to the name of Jésica Rodríguez as a red flag to remind him that this girl was a “special” case.

Human resources management: Dr. Rusinek, you warn companies against pushing automation at the expense of entry-level jobs. Why? Dr. Hans Rusinek: In the short term, automation seems to have high savings potential, but in the long term it is a danger. If I save on entry-level positions and don’t hire anyone or only a few young people, I’ll fall into a trap: This will break the bottom rung of the career ladder. In this way, companies destroy their own talent pipeline. Employers lose significantly more than they gain, for example the necessary breath of fresh air that young professionals bring…

A resident of Calle Princesa in Madrid had an idea, the possible consequences of which seemed less serious to him than paying the locksmith’s bill: to climb the façade of the building until he reached his apartment on the second floor.
