Hi Zoomers 👋 If you could have a Zoom Meeting with any fictional character, who would it be?

I'll go first 😁. I'm a huge Marvel fan, so it would have to be a Marvel character. Narrowing this down to one character is extremely hard though, but I would have to choose Iron Man. I would love to pick his brain 🤓

Happy Thanksgiving from the Zoom Community Team!  🍂

Gathering around the table (or Zoom screen) this Thanksgiving is a perfect time to reflect, share, and connect. Whether you're spending time with loved ones or taking some much-needed "me time," you’re part of this community, and we’re thankful for YOU ❤️

What are you most grateful for this year AND what’s your go-to Thanksgiving dish? 🦃🍁

I'll start us off. I am feeling most grateful for the opportunity to connect with others. As I've gotten older, I've realized how important it is to take time and commune with those around me (whether virtually or in person). Also, my go-to Thanksgiving dish is my mom's sweet potato pie 😍

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 💪

Hey, ghouls and goblins! 👻

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!  😂
