Do you want a FB or a major airline job ? After you get to your career destination go ahead and get that all important FB account LoL. It might or might not cost you millions of dollars in lifetime wages and retirement if you choose wrongly. Do I think it’s a big deal? Nope but as long as your employer does so should you.

Lurk on your wife’s/brother’s/parents FB Page if the social media withdrawal is too much to bear.

That's ironic coming from a sock puppet troll account.

Who's making fun of minorities? That will get you banned from APC.

Millenials are not a protected class (although some of them probably think they should be ).

Default People become more conservative as they age

Before getting hired at a major:

"I am a tragically-white pro-feminist gay-man. I'm a member of OBAP, WAI, and NGPA."

After getting hired at a major:

"All my wives are pregnant. I'm a patron member of the NRA."

I’ll give my two cents to the conversation. Social media is toxic. It’s probably damaging our brains and it’ll take a generation to figure that out much like smoking and our physical health. It makes people unhappy, causes envy and depression, and creates a world of one upsmanship. Imo many first world problems with society can be attributed to social media. Would parkland have happened if the kid hadn’t grown up with social media? Maybe, but I’d bet it was a contributing factor.

Delete the Facebook, Instagram, etc and never look back. Share thoughts and photos of your life with your REAL friends and family via phone, email, or text. You’ll be happier and it’ll probably help you land a multimillion dollar career.

Amen! Couldn’t agree more.

Get off my lawn you “vermin”!

Lol so predictable
It’s got to be tough to sit down every night at your imaginary dinner party with fox and friends, and constantly lament about the end of your world. You want a tissue snowflake?
