facebook and coworkers

chinoxs203 · 06-29-2011, 02:51 PM

when a coworker requests you on FB do you limit your coworkers from viewing certain parts of your page or allow then free access to all..

they cant view my pictures or comments. my main reason is i dont need them viewing my shit while they are at work which i know would be a good chance, some people are just careless with it..

The fact you are asking is your answer.

i would only let them view next to nothing. work and facebook don't mix, unless you're good friends with certain coworkers. tagging photos is deadly...what if you get tagged in something embarrassing and it becomes water cooler conversation? i do the same thing with family...they can only see my basic profile information, nothing else. i don't want my party pics showing up in their news feed.

I have a business page that everyone can see everything, then I have a personal page that is "personal" to my friends and family.

Problem with this is that when you deny someone's request.... they hold it against you like a grudge

I don't mean just for co-workers, anyone really

Like if I'm seeing a girl, and I meet her friend like once and her friend goes and adds me that same night or something...it's a real pain.

Facebook, best thing I never did.

immiketoo · 06-29-2011, 04:31 PM

I don't play either, other than for when I need to look someone up. Collossal waste of time.

My coworkers never asked to be added and I never asked to add them so no problems there... I like to keep work and personal life separate.

this made me edit the description more specific as to what i meant but i was not clear.

*when a coworker requests you

i do like the idea of two pages.. business and personal.

why don't you make a linkedin page for business?

number335 · 06-29-2011, 05:13 PM

I make my co-workers aware that I don't add anyone I work in the same dept with unless they are a close friend...or really hot.

Kensta335 · 06-29-2011, 05:29 PM

Facebook will be the thing of the past in a year or 2.

just make your facebook unsearchable... and if some coworkers asks you about your fb, u can say that you dont have one. and if u want to add some specific person, u can add them at your own discretion. that way u have full control.
