Please note that this post is based on a true life story.
During my IT days in 2018, I got a gig on twitter from a top laundry company in Lag.
I did apply and I went for the job interview, it was done in batches. We were 3 in the room, then series of questions was thrown at us.
One vital aspect of the interview that got my attention was a research on our social media accounts. The boss had ordered the interviewer to check thoroughly for any discriminating act or post or tweets or images. Anything at all!!!
A lot of people were cut off after this stage, it was a very surprising and insightful experience for me. I would never forget.
Luckily I passed, I was assigned to the post of a receptionist. It was a great feeling. I gained a lot of experience from the laundry.
So nowadays when I see young people of my age posting all kind of erring stuffs on the net, using their social media accounts, I do feel sorry for them because thousands and millions of people around the world are seeing all of these discriminating stuffs. You never can tell who your next boss is, or your next business partner, or your next sponsorship.
With these experience, I'd indulge every youth out there to be thoughtful when sharing stuffs on the net, especially things that are not so cool. I know you wanna have fun but be thoughtful while you joke. The future is there, watching you.
Have a blessed week♥️
