I just finished a conversation with my boss' boss, telling me (as nice as he can) to make all my facebook posts both future and past as hidden as possible.
When I asked why, he made it clear. People are having their lives ruined by posting a maga hat and he was looking out for my best interests.
I work for a fortune 500 company, multi-national and my position is pretty damned important (only about 10 people are in my position in a huge multi-national company) and my boss' boss is warning me against having my whole life destroyed.
I can't tell if I should be mad, sad, or terrified.
If your bosses boss calls you and tells you to clean up your Facebook page, you should do it! Sounds like he’s just looking out for you. If celebrities careers can be canceled and so can yours. Sounds like you’ve got a good position at a fortune 500 company don’t put that at risk. What if you can be fired “at will”? No lawyer is going to take on a Fortune 500 company Pro Bono. It will cost you a bundle, take years all while you don’t have a job! A jury’s decision is always a coin flip. NOT WORTH IT! People will encourage you to “go for it” or “fight for freedom- die on that hill” but they and their jobs are not at risk. Why is anyone still on FaceBook anyway!!! Take care and good luck! 🙂
