It depends…

May 21, 2009

Funny how many questions have answer that start with those two words. This tends to be exceptionally true of the coporatization of social media.

The complexities of the requirements for big business and their employees is not as clear cut as it is for small, aggressive start-ups. In the end, the reality is that discretion is required on both sides; by the people who post or create media, and the people who read or consume media.

  • Thanks everyone for stopping by and sharing your thoughts.

    @BestFlashSites, you point out an interesting trend that many employers find acceptable. That being flexible on comp time and other arrangements to accommodate people's lifestlyes. It helps when you're kind of tied to a specific job.
  • You need the pay but, are frusterated that your Employer depends on you too much, yet takes you for granted at the same time. Special Field, and very small bussiness. I have a lot of freedoms but, I like to get off on time if I am not due to recieve overtime. I end up adding the hours on to comp time. Don't be mean just speak your mind.

    I think these two words have are more than enough to express something which have no words to explain.
  • "What if my company finds me posting on Facebook when I’m home sick?"
    What if? I mean just because you're sick doesn't mean that you suddenly can't use your laptop anymore. But I agree with other questions - it all depends on a number of factors.
