Daddy

Wah...though I think what she posted was not right... But getting fired and announced on FB?


Internet is indeed serious business.
Moral of the story... Your FB friend could be your worst enemy.
:celebrate:

Yes, I agree. I thought she will probably be issued with a warning. But for her to be fired and announced, that is really....

Now I am starting to think if it is just FB or even forum using nicknames are vulnerable too..

Yah... Tell me abt it...
隔墙有耳....

I would fire her for stupidity.

I got no FB friend. I got no FB account either. :imcool:

she is a AD, should have some idea how to behave already at that level. I believe all public officers need to adhere to some kind of code of conduct, even in their private life.

I suppose we have to constantly remind ourselves to post responsibly in our sharing. Then we should be fine.

But FB is not private, it is public. Many people don't understand that.

Reading her posting again peppered with f language....it is totally uncalled for. At her level, she should jolly well know what to do. FB is a social media which all your FB friends (potentially include ex-classmates, colleagues, bosses, relatives, etc...) will get to see. With lax security setting, even a guest can see your comments. So I feel that it is also an extension of your professional life.... and care should be taken when posting there. Even headhunters go to FB to size up a candidate... what got into her????

i know where you are coming from 3boys but it doesnt work this way. Public officers are to conduct themselves in a manner that upholds the integrity of the Public Service and public confidence in it and should not behave in a way that will bring the Public Service into disrepute.

public officers are also human la… they will also hv bad days at work if scolded by bad-tempered bosses…


no matter what that is posted on fb, i just feel that ppl should not get penalised for being "out of their minds" just once in a while… of cos regular postings of negative values and moods is a big no no…

that’s why as your position gets higher, your posts on fb gets lesser… so true…

3Boys, or anyone for the matter, do you know if personal blogs are considered "public"?


i re-read your post and I believe I didn’t catch what you are saying earlier. Your point is “FB” is public but most people think that FB is their private life. My point was she is a public officer so she needs to adhere to the prescribed code of conduct, doesnt matter where/what. So I am wondering how about personal blog which is available for all to view?
