Is It Okay to Add Your Boss on Facebook? KISS Listeners discuss!
Recently a good friend of mine got a friend request on Facebook from her new boss. She's only been at this job a few weeks. She doesn't have anything to hide, but she just doesn't want to mix up her work and personal life. What do YOU think? I took this qustion to the Facebook page, and here's what listeners had to say!
Here's what I say:
Personally it's kind of a sticky situation. I totally see not wanting to mix social and work life, so I can totally agree with that. I personally think her boss adding her makes it seem a little "I got my eye on you" ya know? I think it's one thing to friend request your boss if you're comfortable enough with them, but I think it's another for them to friend request you. Especially when you're THAT new. Ya know? It's just sticky!
Here's a few of my favorite comments!
Chanel Sanchez My boss is my sister so yea I would!!! I did!!
Crystal Healy NEVER!!! Because my work life and my personal life are two separate entities. I don't ever mix the two. I do have friends that I work with but they are at the same level of the job that I'm in. I don't want something held against me that I done on personal time or maybe the boss n I have different beliefs and it'd make the work relationship weird. I don't date people I work with either
Rachael Blansit I accepted mine. I'm pretty much an open book thou.
Mary Nell No!! I have blocked mine and his assistant.
Cynthia Cox I would. I have nothing to hide.
Jason Patrick Roberts Melissa you're awesome (So are you Jason!)
I wanna know what YOU think!
