What do you think of your employer or future employer checking to see what you have written on Cs before they fire or hire you? Are you the least bit worried?

Not worried at all. Anyone can read anything I've ever written here and it wouldn't bother me in the least.

Not that I believe that CS has/holds any bearing on employment status or possibilities, but no, not worried in the least. dancing

Am I worried about the boss finding out that I am CS? Ooops, I better get off before he finds out. Damm too late, he found out.

doh

Wait a minute, I am the boss.


Nope not worried. I tend to say stupid things in person too. And it will get me in trouble, long before anything I write here.

If a company that wants to hire you, goes on a single site and uses that as information ........ I do not feel it is right.

If Connecting Singles is the company that you have applied to work for, that is a different situation. JMHO, they might need to know what your reaction is to certain situations, or comments.

If you act like a baffoon etc, what kind of customer service and support will you give to others on CS?

I have heard of info taken from another social site to determine if the person drink and do other things, and that it may actually go against the person.

I take issue with a company that goes on a social site to spy on a potential employee. Just because someone gives a certain impression on a social site, it does not mean they are like that in real life.

I'm still confused as to a company actually ... going on a social site... to spy on an employee.... if that is true, what has the work place world come to? confused

confused

This is beyond BIZARRE!!! (jmho).... but we have rights and the very fact that any company is cruising the internet, filtering through what individuals are saying on any given site????? Yes, I do realize that once we have posted something, it essentially becomes public domain, but....

I have to say that any business or company who practices the aforementioned would not even have my interest as a potential employee - in other words; WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO WORK FOR THEM???? I mean, they have the time and mentality to spy on people? Do they follow people to restaurants and grocery stores to see what they eat and drink? Somehow I doubt it....But, I do wonder if someone shared this little tidbit with you to deter you from this and other site???? Is that possible? angel

It's not possible that someone would try to deter me from this site because this is something that I heard of recently.

rolling on the floor laughing Can you say paranoid
If one has to worry about what they say on a singles site for fear of your employer or a future employer judging you is ludicrous
Its not an employer I would want to work for who would check out singles sites for a reference
This is the internet and what one posts on CS is public info to all who read it If a person is that worried about there conduct on a singles site for fear of someone reading it just takes the fun out of posting a comment JMO

If my potential boss is on CS then i would imagine he/she is in the same boat as I (either single and looking or just here for the forums) so can't say i'd be too concerned there....
