Almost Friday! Dan DeFrancesco in NYC, and I'd like to give a warm welcome to the city's first-ever director of rodent mitigation, Kathleen Corradi. As a former elementary school teacher, Corradi is already well-versed in dealing with small pests.

Today, we've got stories on a frequent-flyer-like program for hourly workers, PE firms can't get enough of their own debt, and luxury hotels that won't break your bank

But first, I'm gonna need you to go ahead and come in tomorrow. M'kay?
