As someone who's a business owner, and has been an assistant manager in the past, I can say it would probably depend on the manner in which she complained. if she called Subway out by name, that would be a degree worse than just saying 'Work Sucks'.
Like Twitch monitoring people's activity on twitter and the like.
Yeah, no, I see your point there
There's a point where it crosses a line from protecting a brand
into policing your employees
or in the case of twitch, contractors.
Maybe the work thing was kind of a bad example of my part, because there are good cases and bad cases of that happening.
Like, if I got fired for saying, by name, my employer sucks and nobody should use the service, and talk about what a tool one of our customers are, and release information like that
That's damaging to my employer, they have every right to fire me
But if I simply repost a spicy meme
I shouldn't get called into the manager's office over that.
I guess, but if it's something like "I hate my work hours" or something, that is much more inocuous.
I think the main issue in this discussion is that people are too accustomed to social media being their new "friend/audience"
That they forget that posting on open social media isn't
"Talking to friends" as much as "Announcing to the world"
And as chat is open to interpretation, their followers see it more as a point of noteworthy discussion
Aka, a complaint isn't letting off steam, but a genuine complaint
Jay put that quite well.
It also comes down to what was said and how it's said.
100%.
Oh yeah, my main point was if we would ever reach the point where a lack of social media accounts would ever in and of itself be a red flag to employers, because then there would be nothing for them of you to monitor.
oh that will definately happen,
"bad" branded social media will give you negative rep
like if you're on Gab, a "notorious alt-right blabla" form of twitter
Like having no facebook or twitter, but having Gab account.
My Gab account, for instance, if they actually looked into it would find that I'm pretty much just one of two Nintendo news outlets on there.
But would they even look? lol
depends on if you use your real life info on gab 😛
Which brings up another point: what if your social media accounts don't use your real name or identity?
well as long as they remain anonymous, they'll never know
Like, again, my Gab account being "JadenFrostwolf", not my real name and face.
well if they'd google your name, you wouldn't show up on gab, so you'd be safe
Hopefully that is all they care about.
until all the bad people do it, then the left will push for banning anonimity
Kind of like what's going on right now with the MoneyBadgers calling out Metikur for being anonymous. lol
i haven't picked up on that one yet
but yeah, if they demand the "trolls" get revealed, then you'll get a shitstorm
Metikur and Randomercam got into a bit of a spat in the comment's section of one of Metikur's videos -- the one where he's talking about a pedophile that's also autistic?
Destiny? 😛
Randomercam apparently had issue with Metikur calling him autistic, even though he actually was, or something?
I only have Metikur's perspective of this, since Randomercam I don't think has talked about it.
*Allegedly*, Randomercam made continual and consistent passive-aggressive twitter comments about Metikur, before finally Metikur called him out on it, asking him to come to a livestream to talk about it in the internet equivalent of 'face-to-face.'
And Randomercam wouldn't do it.
The Honeybadgers jumped in and eventually one of them came into an IBS stream to confront Metikur.
You can imagine how well that went.
I only know Metikour to be a very sharp wildcard
