  1. You and i and everyone else do live in a free country but a company has the right to not hire you or fire you if you do something that would make the company look bad.

    I don't have any problem not hiring someone who's facebook page/or myspace page is inappropriate. The picture I'm referring to is not a nude pic, it's what the person is doing at the time of the picture that's at issue here.

    So let me ask you all a question, what is acceptable and what is not? From a free country standpoint that Happiness is taking

    Are nude pics on facebook or myspace acceptable?

    Are pictures of you doing drugs acceptable?

    Are participating in a satanic ritual acceptable?

    Just what is acceptable and what is not???

    Nude pics arent suppose to be acceptable but not sure about the rest

  2. I was perusing facebook tonight and I looked at a member of this site's photo album. That member will remain anonymous but.... There was a very questionable photo on their facebook photo album. If I was a personnel manager I would put this person on a do not hire list based on that photo alone but the other photos were of this person obviously on their 21'st birthday.

    I know that people want to be free in expressing themselves to the world but the photo bordered on the pornographic.

    At a previous employer, clients would get our names and then go to our myspace, or our facebook pages and if they did not like what they saw they would refuse to bring us into their organization. I know of two people who were let go from my previous company based on their myspace pages.

    One client actually said that they didn't hire a consultant because of the myspace page.

    This client who didn't hire the person from a consulting company cost that consulting company over 250K for a one year contract.

    Your profiles are looked at. They are scrutinized by companies and this is an easy way to either make or break your entrance into a particular company.

    This is a warning and a heads up. It just seems that some people don't get it.

    I'm ranting and raving and my blood sugar is about 260 right now so I better just stop.

    take this warning however you want to take it.

    Leaves me out.....im over 21 and don't have a facebook.

    Myspace is enough

  3. Well I am shocked to see Cardinals go this far, I am happy its not the Patriots or Cowboys this year!!!

    I am also shocked to see Steelers go twice in 4 years, real shocked.

    I requested off Super Bowl night, party at firehall, last Super Bowl I worked and was in the heart of town when the game ended, boy did this city go nuts!

    Steelers are goanna get the "6 pack" this year...

  4. There have been some real love connexions here at EMT City over the years. At least one marriage, and two babies. But there have been some EPIC failures too.

    Actively looking for love is a bad way to go. Specifically focusing on someone in EMS is even worse. I sense fail.

    Ony 2 babies??? wow, thought there would be more.....

  5. here we go again another dead horse to be beaten to a pulp.

    We have all worked or know workers who are gay. SO WHAT. As long as the homosexual person does not touch me or talk to me inappropriately I don't give a crap if they are gay. I don't agree with their lifestyle choice but I don't treat them any differently than any other person that I work with.

    Another moral dilemma on the threads.

    Crotch here are the next topics of your future threads

    remember the first black partner you worked with.

    Remember the first mentally ill partner you worked with

    remember the first hispanic partner

    Remember your first pregnant partner you worked with

    remember the first white anglo saxon non gay, non hispanic, non nuts partner???

    We'll wait for you to make these polls

    Well spoken Ruff..I applaude you!
