Jackazz of the week - a Facebook fool!

When will the people learn this...everything that comes to your mind does not mean you need to type it on FB for the world (your employer, family, friends) to see and then have the WTH look on your face if something like this happens!

 Exactly!  I agree 100%.

Well, I do "do" Facebook and I love the interaction WITH MY FRIENDS! I am on "private" - in other words unless I invite you to see what I'm talking about, etc., you cannot see ANYTHING on my page - no pictures, no info...no nothing!

I am into social media - that's one of the perks of my job...and the fact that I am what some would call a 'people' person - so, I am not intimidated nor worried about FB presence. However, with that said, and with anything else, EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE VERY INTENTIONAL ABOUT WHAT THEY PUT ON FACEBOOK, MY SPACE, TAGGED or any other social website! The dumbness that was placed by this so-called administrator cost him his job - and he should have KNOWN better!

I enjoy communicating with my family members, friends, church members, etc. on FB and will continue to do so - it is not FB that's the issue - it's the stuff people put on FB that is the issue...so I say, to each his/her own...just understand that whatever you post as a status can be repeated and re-distributed - friends do it to one another all the time!

Now, back to Facebook I go!!! ==============>

THAT IS ALL!

I so agree Donna.   My profile is on locked down also.

FB has enabled me to stay in contact with out of town family members,  my co-workers since I have retired this year !!   Not to mention all the reunited friends from grade school !!

We are also in the process of planning our HS reunion.  We have a FB private group set up for classmates !!

FB is a great networking tool from home.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE VERY INTENTIONAL ABOUT WHAT THEY PUT ON FACEBOOK, MY SPACE, TAGGED

  Assuming that INTENTIONAL in this case is interchangable with CAREFUL and I agree with you whole heartedly.    Because when the proverbial "stuff" hits the fan over something said it will all be seen as intentional regardless.

The dumbness that was placed by this so-called administrator cost him his job - and he should have KNOWN better!


It cost him more than his job.  His family has had to move out of state due to death threats.

I am a facebook -er and love it.  HOWEVER - I do lock down access and I keep an eye on my friends list - i can tell you the # of them on any given day.  I've rejected quite a few invites from co-workers and some family (hey, if you gotta reach me on FB, we ain't THAT close).  And just like in real life - I say what the **** Imma say........ but never anything totally inflammatory.

I DID run into a lil 'issue' a lil ways back....*straightens 'pimp' collar*  I forgot that I had a couple 'honies' as friends and I cncld time with one in favor of a different 'pick' - I told the loser I was sick but then hit my status bar with something like 'Bout to run the streets'.........

WHOOPS!!!

But - pimp that I am - when homie came at me with the WTF - I just told him straight - look, I got a better offer and went with that - sorry cuz.

His response?

What can I do to be first pick next time?

 and THAT'S how REAL G's get down!!!!! LMAOOOOOO

(hey, if you gotta reach me on FB, we ain't THAT close). 

  Word up.   

Intelligent or mis guided, we have our right to independent thoughts and opinions.  The problem is, many of us now have this cyber need to share every thing that passes through our heads with the world. 

You don't have to agree with any one or anything or participate in any cause.  No hate, no explanations, just dont get involved.  If you want to put it all out there, expect to be judged for your views.  You invited judgement.
