A Word to the Wise

Great advice! Thank you

My nurse manager wears combat boots and tracks mud through the ER.

Same goes for Facebook, MySpace and Twitter.

You never know who's lurking or checking up.

Yep Yep!! All my profiles are private!! And I never use my last name!!

Oh yes; this age of modern technology is awesome but at the same time anyone can look. When I post I don't use my real name as the screen name and I don't divulge private client information. Nothing that can identify me to anyone where I live. I usually put the correct info in my profile. I don't have anything to hide.

Anyone have any problems with cyber or internet bullies? I had to close down a perfectly lovely facebook page secondary to her goofball antics.

Mine's the anti-Christ.

Sooo....KateRN1....are u a nurse manager or some kind of healthcare administrator? Just had to ask:cheers:. You are right on the money though. In this job market, you had better believe that potential employers are checking social networking sites out. They are checking because they do not want anyone who might be less than "cream of the crop" in their opinion, and/or someone who seems like they could make trouble for them. They check credit reports as well. I also think they are checking to see if they know of anyone you might associate with. In other words.....they want more than a criminal background check. They want your entire history, your shoe size, and ultimately, your soul.

You can't be hung for what you are thinking. (only what you put in print)!
