Business Insider contributor Jannese Torres-Rodriguez was laid off from a job she hated in 2014. But it was a blessing in disguise.

Tiffany Wood has been an active 'super user' seller on Poshmark since 2015, and her loyalty has truly paid off. According to Business Insider, Wood now has a $12,000 nest egg because she bought stock in the company's initial public offering. In a leaked email, Poshmark let super users know the company had reserved 330,000 shares that they, and their friends and family, could purchase. The max buy was 150 shares. Wood bought 149 shares at $42 a share--the initial share price. On day one, her stock went up to a value of $14,378. By the market's close on Friday, shares were trading at $83.20. Wood's stake is still worth $12,397 with a healthy profit of $6,139. And she's thrilled!
Jordan Nabigon is the CEO of the content curation site Shared. He was a big Facebook customer, spending nearly $46 million in ads on the site. That is, until the platform booted him without warning or explanation. According to Business Insider, Facebook says Shared violated the site's terms and conditions. However, it wouldn't explain what the violations were. Nabigon says several of Shared's pages have been unpublished since October 26, taking 21 million of the company's followers with them. He added that Facebook gave him no warning that they could or would unpublish his pages, and that Facebook told him the decision was final. Business Insider reports Facebook has also locked Nabigon out of his personal account.
The US Federal government's Paycheck Protection Program, or PPP, doled out hundreds of billions of dollars to businesses. The PPP's goal was to assist businesses during the nearly inevitable slowdowns due to the coronavirus pandemic. But according to Business Insider, many minority-owned businesses were left waiting for funds until the final weeks of the program. Many of our businesses were being turned down in the first and second round of funding. That caused application fatigue and frustration. Ron Busby President, US Black Chambers The Center For Responsible Lending says minority-owned businesses support 8.7 million jobs with an annual total payroll of $280 billion.
In these strange days in which tens of millions of Americans videoconference while they work from home, it's no surprise that occasionally, one may spy a bit of junk. And no, not the junk in the sense of a co-worker's collection of creepy mannequin parts, or another's assortment of vintage Cabbage Patch dolls. Rather, seeing a co-worker's naughty bits. Private parts. Genitals! Hopefully, you don't plan to show your bits and pieces to Jerry from Accounts Receivable. So to make sure that never happens, Gizmodo has some handy tips. First, wear clothing that covers you not only from the waist up. You might forget, and stand up. Oops! And remember that muting yourself on Zoom calls only mutes your audio. If you absolutely must get your rod and tackle out, hit 'stop video' first. Please!
