That day I was stunned to find a string of responses. “You’ve been hacked,” said one follower. “Did you just learn Russian recently?” joked another. Several thought I was swindling them. Some people claimed that they wanted to stop following me. It didn’t sound right. I went over to the login screen. There, I entered my email address and password. Nothing. I tried again thinking that I had typed it wrong. My account was locked by this. The panic started to set in. My routine social media check turned out to be a little nightmare. At the time, it didn’t Feel minor. The hackers had compro...

Hacking is something that has become all too common with the internet being as integral to our lives as it is today. While many people fear hackers gaining access to their social media, bank, or loan accounts, there are even bigger and more dangerous possibilities.  Cyber attacks have risen dramatically over time. In 2015, suspects Russian hackers knocked out electricity for nearly 250,000 customers in Ukraine, with a similar attack toward Ukraine government occuring the next year.

Business Stereotypes The “Business Stereotype” is a phenomenon that arises in organizations. It is an idea or concept about how people want to perceive their peers, but it is not truly accurate.

They continue to maintain a grueling schedule that encompasses their personal and professional lives. A true workaholic has no separation between the two, as their life is their job. As previously mentioned, this stereotype is often untrue for even the hardest workers in a business setting. It is because family time and time with friends are essenti...

These trends are not expected to stop anytime soon either. Runaway inflation rates suggest that $1 in 2020 will equal just $.65 in 2030. It is clear that paper money is depreciating in value, but this is not the first time the country has experienced this. In the 2008-2012 recession, investors started pouring more of their money into gold which led to the value of it increasing.
