    Default Why you should never have your managers as friends on Facebook!

    This one actually made the news here in Oz - was in high circulation yesterday...

    I especially love the use of the words "Epic Fail"...

    Read from the bottom up...

    Hi Niresh,
    My leave was due to medical reasons, so you cannot deny leave based on a line manager’s discretion, with no proof, please process leave as requested.
    Thanks

    Hi Kyle,
    Usually that is the case, as per your contract. However please note that leave during these occasions is only granted for genuine medical reasons. You line manager has determined that your leave was not due to medical reasons and as such we cannot grant leave on this occasion.

    Niresh,
    1 day leave absences do not require a medical certificate as stated in my contract, provided I have stated that I am on leave for medical reasons.
    Thanks

    TOO FUNNY!!!

    It is funny - I have a couple colleagues and former sales reps for various products... and it is at times a little strange to get the personal side of their lives... especially some of the little innuendo and banter between friends.

    Our office is pretty close.. When hiring, the company makes sure they hire someone that will get along with everyone else here... so most people are friends.. even bosses and staff.. so having my bosses etc on my facebook is not an issue for me.. they usually know whats going on in my life anyway..

    But for the reason you say above, knowing about peoples personal lives, i actually have 2 facebook profiles.. One for affiliates, and one for everyone else. I have a couple of affiliate managers on my personal facebook, but sometimes I freak out a little.. I'm a pretty crazy person and I get up to a lot of mischief on the weekends and there are many photos to prove it.. Photos which are definitely not for eyes of affiliates... I think you guys would think differently of me if you saw them!

    Or I may be just as you expected :P
    I think I surprised a lot of people in a good way in Barcelona.. Apparently I'm known as the aff manager who can drink everyone under the table, and looks the best in the morning after a night on the **** and only 2 hours sleep

    Now you've got my attention! No fair to tease us with wild party pics!

    Me - I'm the wallflower... so there aren't too many incriminating photos anyway. I actually drink more when I go to affiliates conference (which hasn't been in over a year) than the rest of the year combined!

    For me, it's just keeping the innuendos to a minimum... most people get tired of them long before I do anyway!

    There is an easy solution to this problem - when I'm at a conference, come find me.. Ill be where there is the loudest noise, the most beers, and generally I am the only girl in a large group.. Have always gotten along better with the boys.

    You are then BOUND to be caught in one of my shenanigans deserving a photo :P

    Absolutely agreed! I couldn't stop laughing when I read that.. the only thing that would have made it funnier would have been if the boss sent the screen shot through with EPIC FAIL written over it.. LOL

    That’s hilarious.
    <O</O
    <O</O

    I saw that Virgin Atlantic had fired 13 cabin crew members the other day due to messages posted on Facebook.

    <O</O
    <O</O
    (I can't post a direct link until I have 4 posts )

    Thirteen cabin crew staff have been sacked by Virgin Atlantic over their use of a social networking website, it has emerged.
    The airline said the crew's behaviour "brought the company into disrepute".

    It is understood the messages, which have now been removed, related to planes flying from Gatwick. <!-- E SF -->Virgin Atlantic started an investigation last Thursday after messages reportedly appeared on Facebook that called its passengers "chavs".
    I love this bit.

    They also reportedly claimed the planes were full of cockroaches and alleged the airline's jet engines were replaced four times in one year.
    <O</O

    <O</O


    Employees need to be more careful when using Facebook that’s for sure.<O</O

    How about the face on the guy? It's like he's looking at the camera and saying "how YOU doin'?"
