Does any one have any experience of this sort of problem ?

Be from a employee situ to an employer.

Im happy for people to sticky me.

I would not allow co-workers on my personal Facebook account period.

My wife sets hers to the extreme - no one can search for her, only her friends can see her Facebook entries (comments, posts, pictures, etc) and she lets NO co-workers friend her. Friends of Friends are blocked from seeing anything.

Others here have setup two FB accounts - personal and work.

Unfriending does not send out a notice. Perhaps your issue is a housecleaning one? HTH

Making disparaging comments about your job on FB (or any public forum) is simply stupid. You always have to assume that at some point they will get back to your boss and/or others in the company (as well as potential employers).

+1 to LifeinAsia's comment.

I tell people that 'internet posts/email have a half life of nuclear fuel. Expect the item to resurface many years later in a way/time that you CAN NOT control'.

I also add 'never post anything that you wouldn't be proud to show your grandmother'.

Its just that Ive go a coworker who is being disciplined, he wrote no comments that could ID anyone or the company (company now say is abusive). But has writen an email to a coworker on Facebook in his own time using an expletive to describe the firm, this email is being use as evidence against him.

I wouldn't really consider e-mail private either... You never know what might happen to that e-mail should your friendship with the recipient end. Or what if the recipient sells/donates the computer without wiping the hard drive?

Just like social media, once you've hit SEND, you've pretty much lost all control of the message.

I have an old DOS computer in the loft , which was given to me as a techie person, which has the home addresss and contact numbers of members of "high society". Guessing it was from a charity asking for funds.

_{Aside great film "High Society"}
