Title: tweet?
Post by: bodie on October 18, 2013, 12:30:32 PM
Who tweets?

My twitter account is very serious.  There are no goofy, funny face pictures as avatar's.  I have never even posted my ass on twitter.

I tend to tweet certain government officials about the poo poo policies they come up with.  I am a political tweeter and don't tweet for fun.

No doubt he actually reads it. Know someone who is facebook 'friends' with Ted Nugent. It strikes as laughable in the same way.

A wisecrack at how the media portrays those who don't use social media. You're either branded a potential stalker/psycho/whatever the buzzword of the week is and/or their favorite, a loner who may shoot up a school/do something bad.

But social networking sites are the psycho stalker's playground. Haven't noticed the media portray images people who don't use social media.

And there lies the paradox. Because indeed, social networking sites are a excellent location for those people to easily prey on others, yet, the media likes to also portray those who don't use it the same thing because of the whole, "They've got something to hide" bullshit.

It's been a while, can't remember any specific examples. But I do distinctively remember something about how some employers won't even hire you if you don't have a social media account because you're not trustworthy. It's not as direct as "OMG you're a stalker if you don't use it", it's more subtle like, "If you're not using social media, you may be viewed as... according to this recent study" and it'll try to be as passive as possible while holding certain negative undertones.

Sorry anecdotal is as best as I can do really.

That's okay. Would be seriously creeped out by an employer who cared to be a part of my social media. :laugh:

As would I. Mind you to them it's more about sussing out potential liabilities before they hire you. If you don't have a social media profile, they'll assume you're hiding something and trash your resume. While understandable, I find it disturbing because it allows employers to discriminate your application over trivial details, instead of just considering your credentials.
