We've got a fairly lenient social media policy.

It makes sense though.

The more you try to hide, it deeper underground (and uncontrolled) it festers.

Ours is pretty lenient too. I was just really surprised a "friend" (and keep in mind, I use Facebook like other people use LinkedIn) would repost one of my pictures on a second social media platform and take credit for it as his own, until it got him in trouble and then turn around and point the finger at me. Of course, this was all before Miranda Kerr stole one of my Instagram picture and tried to pass it off as her own. Now I know.

This "friend" wouldn't happen to be called Air Algiere by any chance?

We have a dedicated team in the NOC (picture Dr. Evils secret lair) that monitors social media. I would not be the least bit surprised if they were monitoring employee activity and reporting on it.

I don't understand how people can put stuff out there and expect it to not get around. These days anything you do is subject to public scrutiny.

I don't think anyone has an expectation that the company won't see it. What they have an expectation of is that the company won't use it for discipline. SWA is going to lose those discipline cases, because the arbitrators are almost certainly going to port the NLRA rulings protecting it as concerted speech. But we shouldn't need arbitrators. For a company that professes to live by "the golden rule," they should just do the right thing. Of course, that's why I gagged whenever I walked down the hallway in Atlanta and saw that golden rule nonsense up on the wall.

I agree with you FWIW. I would just rather avoid the drama altogether personally.
Both in my prior job and in this one, I am amazed at some of the stuff put out there on social media by acquaintances.

Having watched the fire truck salute myself...well, it has a high suck factor.

As for my bros at Tranny, most of them are fairly grumpy.

That said, they got a couple of good licks in. The AirTran "Get along little doggy" ad was pretty funny.

I forgot about that commercial! ROFL
