ZOOM-ing Through Ridgeland: Where to Take Your Next Video Call

Let’s be real: while the rest of the world has slowed down, your work load certainly has not.

You’re taking more video calls than you were before Covid-19 hit, and your coworkers basically know what the inside of your home office looks like as well as you do.

Perhaps you could use a little break from saying, “I apologize for my dog barking” in every virtual business meeting. Thankfully, Ridgeland has excellent spots to take your next video call and allow for a little change of scenery. No need for wi-fi either if you download the Zoom app directly to your cell phone!
