Personally i would not accept. I don't think its a good idea to accept the friend request of anyone who has that kind of power over you. You need space.
Absolutely not will assist in doxing.
Don’t do it. Think twice before letting managers follow you on Facebook. They're not there to cheer you on or offer support—they're watching. The moment you post something they disagree with, it could lead to consequences or even land you on a Performance Improvement Plan or termination. A colleague is just that - a colleague, not your friend.
A.I.
Yes. I don't care who follows me, though I only use LinkedIn. No one owns me.
Definitely not, those people are your coworkers not friends regardless of how much time you’ve spent with them on the job
Nope. Absolutely not. Never talk too much about your social or personal life. If a supervisor wants to gain access to your social media sites then there’s reasons you may not be aware of . Be careful and keep those boundaries.
It's up to you. If you want to know exactly how your boss feels about you and other members of her team, do it. My manager, who is not the sharpest tool in the shed and should know better, is friends with everyone on our team. She posts some things that are incredibly stupid; read between the lines and you know who that meme is directed at. This was brought to the attention of her boss. The person who reported this was told to "grow a thicker skin and stop reading things into comments that aren't there.
Make a business social account for your work related contacts and keep comments work practical
As soon as I start working in a new company, I find all of my coworkers that I can and block them. I have heard too many times someone talking about someone's social media behind their backs at work or making comments. These days people are searching for something to get offended by or jealous over...so I leave nothing to chance. All it takes is for them to decide to twist something and use against you. It could be a simple share or even a connection that leads them to judging you. I've had bad experiences if you can't tell. 😏
Oh hell no... I don't care how good the boss is or how well I get along wityh him at work, you accept a friend request on Facebook from him and pretty soon he's reading all of your previous posts, making work requests, etc.
No, I explained to him that I like to keep work and personal lives separate. He understood.
Under no circumstances should you accept that invitation. Make your profile private and they ask about it just say they you hadn’t been checking as much as you’re trying to limit your time on social media. Call it a detox or whatever you want but having your boss on IG invites a level of surveillance that won‘t serve you well.
Do not accept from your boss or coworkers. It's best to block all of them as soon as you get the job.you don't want them in your personal space
nope social media is not for work, i refuse to be friends on socials with people i work with.
I usually block them.
Get off social media.
Do you love your boss ? My boss is awesome I wouldn't hesitate but if he's being nosey I would make privacy restrictions for that contact.
If you don't want to accept, don't - it could be safer that way.
Never ever…
Don't.
Accept it then befriend them
No, I think it's inappropriate for a boss to reach out for a connection socially.
What happens when you need to look for another job? Now you're boxed in and can't post that your looking without fear of being fired or upsetting your employer.... Something to consider for sure....
