Would you actually add a "COWORKER" to your facebook page?-lol

[TVFactFan]

I'm STUNNED to find out that some people have added co-workers as friends on their facebook page and not realizing how that can hurt them in the long run. I would never add a coworker to my facebook no matter how cool we are, just does not make sense at all.

I have - past and present co-workers. To each his own!! :D

Past is fine but Present means that the people you work with can find out about what's going on in your outside life. Take them off now Monika-lol

No, I wouldn't. Its not a good idea.

I have a few past coworkers added on Facebook. I used to work with these people at grocery stores, real estate officers and floral shops. All the people I work with in my current job are in 40's and older. I'm not sure if any of them have a Facebook account.

Of course, I purposefully search in my company network for people at my store. I'm friends with a lot of people at my work, we're all pretty close, so my question would be "why would I not add my friends"?

Depends on if you're actually friends with them. In my case I am, so I did.

I guess I always had my outside life and work life seperate so as long as you watch what you say you should be ok. Me I prefer a coworker who is a friend not knowing so much about my life outside the job

Yeah, I usually go out and party with my coworkers so there's nothing really to hide, lol. However, would I ever add my store manager as a friend in facebook? absolutely NOT.

[Sharop]

If I was friendly with them, I probably would.

I guess it depends on your situation. I'm pretty friendly with some people from work, so I have no problem adding them onto my page. But I do completely agree with Sol that you have to be REALLY careful what you say about work on your Facebook page. That's why I don't divulge my feelings about it on Facebook. To me, that's personal and private - plus I like staying ethical. :D

[comedyfreak]

I have on myspace, no big deal. Don't know of any coworkers on facebook, or I'd add them too.

[Chocolate Moose]

NO WAY !

[Chocoholic]

I don't have either one, but I would have no problem adding a co-worker if it was one of my friends.

[iris*happydays]

Depends !! CoWorkers only, No Way! But if there's a Friendship beyond the Work, Sure Thing!

[MickeyMac]

Depends. If we were friends beyond work sure, otherwise I like to keep work seperate from my personal life.

That's my feeling about it too.

[catlover79]

I just wouldn't add a higher-up (general manager, etc.) to my profile. If the co-workers are peons like me, then fine. :lol:
