Hello Zoomers! 👋   From painting classes to movie nights to live concerts, there are SOOO many activities you can do on a Zoom call. Therefore, I have to ask…   What is your favorite activity to do on Zoom? Reply below! 👇   My favorite activity to do on Zoom is workout classes. Sometimes going to the gym can seem like a daunting task. However, attending workout classes on Zoom is a great way to break a sweat without actually leaving my apartment. Plus, having other participants take a class with you gives it a similar feel to an in-person group workout class 💪    

How.

Hi Zoomers!    I know we’ve all had one, so tell me…   What has been your most EMBARRASSING moment on Zoom?   Reply below 👇👇   -- I love to be comfortable but presentable on my Zoom calls, so I typically wear a plain T-shirt or top. However, what I decide to wear for bottoms varies. Sometimes I wear jeans, sometimes I wear yoga pants, and sometimes I even wear pajamas. However, there was one meeting where I wore pajama shorts and randomly had to step away from my desk. Unfortunately, I forgot to turn my camera video off, so everyone saw my pajamas. I was so embarrassed!  😂  

I typed a post and got a message telling me to correct the highlighted areas, but there were no highlighted areas! What am I looking for?

How on earth do we get some level of support from zoom?Our Account Manager is absolutely useless. Asked for help with our account and he didnt respond for 10 days after a follow up or 2.E.g. Sent the email on 19th March, and he finally responded on the 29th.... and the response was useless and didnt help at all. Sent another email on the 29th, and still havent had any response. Zoom - do you expect your account managers (Paul Chang) to turn customers away? Because that is what he has done for us. Looking at other options ASAP. Maybe this will get some response?

As we hop into the Easter weekend, did you know that...The Easter bunny tradition originated in Germany, where it was known as the "Easter hare".Easter is the second-largest candy-consuming holiday in the US, after Halloween.The world's largest Easter egg was over 25 feet tall and weighed over 8,000 pounds.Wow, that's a lot of chocolate and egg-cellent fun!Wishing you all a hoppy Easter and a fantastic Friday!🍳"

  Happy Friday Everyone! I hope everyone took advantage of whatever springtime weather showed up in your town this week. To Celebrate International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month I have a fun credit card fact. In 1950 the first credit card with issued – it was called the Diner’s Club card. Frank McNamara conjured up the idea when he was in New York for dinner and had forgot his wallet at home. He and his business partner Ralph Schneider would invent the Diners Club as a way to pay without carrying cash.BUTIt wasn’t until 1974 with the passing of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act that a women could be issued a credit card. Today:• US women have open more credit card accounts (4.5) compared to US men (3.6)• US men have a higher credit card balance ($6,357) compared to US women ($6,232) on average• The average credit score for US women is 704 compared to 705 for US men• 2012 there was an Amendment to the CARD Act – the amendment allowed for stay-at-home

How do I invert my Zoom background to look like a mirror? I have a cool background but has letters and I can't make it work the right way, it is always inverted and looks terrible.

In today's world, where technology like AI is everywhere, some things might seem old-fashioned. But recently, something happened at Dollar Tree that showed how important checks can still be, even with all the new tech. And we'll sprinkle in a little flavor from some cool Zoom products too! At Dollar Tree, someone wanted to pay with a check. It's not something you see every day, especially when we're used to swiping cards or using phones to pay. But it happened, and it made us think about the good old days when checks were more common. The cashier had to take a moment to make sure everything was okay. In a world where companies like Zoom make cool features to help people work together better, seeing someone write a check felt kind of different.But what happened next was nice. The cashier carefully checked the check to make sure it was real. It took a bit longer, but it was worth it. It felt like a special moment, where two people connected over something simple, like a piece o
