A good reminder to keep personal social media accounts that you use twice a year, and have your actual account be completely anonymous.

Or just avoid the corporate slave jobs that pull this shit altogether.

I would usually agree, but I just learned about the unwoke platform where employers don't use SJW standards for hiring. I'm guessing they won't cyberstalk applicants for offensive thoughts. But these are probably the smaller corporations, not the megacorps.

I stopped caring. I got shit on my criminal record, no convictions, just a bad joke I made on a board, lol, but there still is evidence of the encounter, I wrote un-PC letters to the paper, high school classmates didn't like me, had some falling out with bosses in my current line of work, but if it ever comes up, I don't care. Best thing I ever learned was how to walk out the door. Parents never taught me that, learned it myself. It does pay.

Same but I never cared. In the sense that I finally deleted almost all of my social media accounts where the advice these days is to have them because jobs want to see that you have them. Screw that, why do I need to be FORCED to have social media accounts so I can get hired?!

It never hurt me, I found a great job in December. What hurt me was these cowardly crybabies who would keep fake social media accounts demanding all "non-essential" businesses close. I worked at a non-profit making okay money, but non-profits are notorious for always being in the red or having to float funds because governments are measly with them. So the job is permanently gone. But I got it despite not playing the social media game.

Sounds like you would be best off starting your own business or bleeding the welfare system dry.

No, I work and am actually well-known for being reliable and most importantly, sane on the job. I actually tend to find that if you start off in any organization with an DGAF attitude, they are afraid to get on your *** as much. Works well with women too.

That's good to hear. And IDGAF is a solid tactic for most of our interactions with people. They can't control you as easily.
