Put the boss/co-workers on "limited" profile. You can restrict them from seeing your wall, your photos and any other stuff you don't want them seeing. That way you don't have to sanitize anything and you haven't offended the boss.

It's fairly easy to appear respectable in your limited profile while your extended profile shows the real you.

As an adjuster, drinking with the vendors was pretty much mandatory. I never attended company functions.

I would never drink more than a glass of wine at a company event ever and I nurse that fucker for as long as I can.

I never drink at company events. I've seen too many morons drink themselves into mistakenly thinking they are comic and personable. Besides, I tend to sneak out early.

Blogging is so stupid I am glad your stupid minutia is coming back to haunt you. Have you ever watched the NASA channel? This is the kind of channel you turn on when you are having trouble going to sleep. These people are in SPACE (you know, the final frontier) and almost everything they are doing is BORING and yet they are still more exciting than you.

Information is power. The more information you share (even the stupid shit) the more it can be used against you. This is a...

My myspace WAS private. She friend requested me, and I added her.

The pictures weren't slutty. Sorry but posting pictures of me laying on my bed in my underwear don't constitute as myspace worthy photos.

They simply were pictures of me enjoying the sauce. The reason why I didn't make the pictures private are because it was a privately owned business and her and I would always talk about bars we both went too, places we wanted to go to, and how we should go...

Um, yeah, firing someone cause they complained to a friend about having to go to work is retarded. I'm guessing its the slutty pics of you that really got you fired. Pretty much anyone who doesn't make their myspace private is an idiot and asking for it anyway.

This is the classic dilemma - should I or should I not?

NOT FRIENDING - means you have something to hide and it'll make him very suspicious of you, and he'll be insulted if you don't accept (also - no chance for promotion, job/character reference, etc)

FRIENDING - say goodbye to those slutty pics, time to sanitize your profile and make it boring and mundane to...

Don't forget her relationship with a married guy.

Smart one, that Lauren.

You didn't make your site or your pics private? It's like you wanted to get fired. Oh yeah, you're the dumb one who "had went" somewhere, aren't you?

I left a comment on one of my coworkers pages that said something along the lines of....

"Ughhh work in 2 hours =(."

So she said she took that as me not wanting to be there. Plus she didn't like that (almost) all of my pictures on my myspace included me at a bar or with a drink in my hand. I told her thats the pics I put up because I don't sit in my room and pose for my camera but she wasn't having it.

She told me firing me would allow me...

You gossiped about your co-workers didn't you ?

Or revealed military secrets.

Something like "loose lips are stupid shits"?

So I just tried to add my boss to my extensive 'blocked from searching me' list but he has a very common name so I didn't find him. I have several work people blocked from searching me.

Yeah, you can't just drop that tidbit without at least elaborating or posting a link.

there really should be a law against coworkers sending you stuff on social networking sites ... now i can't really deny the request, nor do i want them to see my personal ramblings.
