Yep.. George Carlin's 7 words has grown to half the English language.

I read the email. It’s pure hysteria. Anyone who needs “protection” from the negative consequences of their words on a company social media site needs to reevaluate how they present themselves.

You use empathy and consider your words and your surroundings.

Is it OK if someone calls your posts “pure hysteria”, or would that be offensive? :D

Do what you wish. If you think expecting people to take responsibility for the things they post on a company social media outlet without “protection” (or avoid posting if they can’t) is hysteria, I can’t help you.

If you think expecting people to refrain from telling offensive jokes at work is hysteria, that’s your decision.

How old are you? Leftists can be offended at a color choice.

Old enough to know how to avoid offensive jokes and posting negatively about my employer without my union “protecting me” from the negative repercussions, I guess.

I won't be using it either, but I'm not the one complaining about the lack of union protection for a company social media website... you are. To me that means you are either dying to post stuff on skyhub but are afraid it will get you into trouble, or you are complaining about something you have zero interest in (aka: complaining for the sake of complaining).

Just remember that only 1% of the pilot group causes 90% of the problems. That email was to discourage that 1% from posting stupid things on a company website that the union would then have to deal with.

A previous employer was dumb enough to allow employees comment on articles on their website. I never posted on it, but it was a great source of pure comedic gold when I was bored. If skyhub gets that kind of reputation, maybe I'll look at it.

Show me a post where I complained about lack of union protection? i never mentioned the union. I just said there was no protection from repercussions.

I am offended that you are putting words in my mouth that I didn’t say....

Maybe I’m an idealist who is trying to protect my fellow union members who might not have the self control I do when dealing the written word on social media. But no, it’s all about me poor, poor, pitiful me.:rolleyes:
