Parody video shows the challenges of tackling the New York train system
Freelance writer Melissa Petro used to teach elementary school in New York City. She truly, madly, and deeply loved her work. Then, the press got hold of her work history in the sex industry. After a headline about her read: 'Bronx Teacher Admits: I'm An Ex-Hooker," she was fired. But according to Business Insider, Petro took that painful, humiliating experience and turned it into what she wanted all along: life as a writer. To deal with such a forced career pivot, Petro says it's important to stop knocking on the same doors that have already closed on you. After continuing to apply for teaching jobs, she eventually gave up and began interviewing for writing jobs and pitching stories. She also cut her expenses drastically, and contacted everyone she knew--even vaguely--for help, ideas, referrals, and contacts. Finally, she learned to learn again, but outside formal degree programs. Ten years into life as a freelancer, she's gone from $20,000 a year to $60,000 a year!
At least 30 people were arrested in lower Manhattan during protests as states are still tallying election results. Some protesters had set fires and clashed with police, Business Insider reported. Protests have erupted across the country to demand a fair count of votes as several states await tallies. These tallies will determine who will win the 2020 presidential election. The protests started following President Donald Trump's re-election campaign said they would file lawsuits. The lawsuits would be to stop vote counts in several states where votes are underway.
