Social media guidelines. They're out there, beware?

[bottomups]

I turned in a sales lead back in '98.

OK, so I borrowed a few thousand pens? Big deal.

And maybe I borrowed a little gas too. So what?

Looking back, I realize that I could have had better self control, and refrain from blowing off stream on social media... but it was an emotional day. A recent tragic anniversary passed us recently, and I wanted to show my support for those that we lost. I was told I couldn't wear neither a hat nor a (non white or brown) shirt (under my browns) that day. Needless to say, I went to social media. I know what our company uniform rules are, and I'm one of the very few that follows it to the T! But on a day like that, I don't see why some of us can't show our American pride! Never forget....

Just wondering if anyone has heard of these guidelines? I don't recall being at a PCM and listening to management explain these guidelines.

had you searched, you would have found posts from people wondering what to do after being fired for posting photos from inside buildings on FB.

Good times.

Although we go to great extremes to maintain anonymity, anyone reading enough of our postings can figure out who is who. Never post ANYTHING that can compromise you in any way.

Is that why you posted your license plate last weekend. Lmfao.

[FilingBluesFL]

Btw, I'm not on the clock right now, so I hope I don't get called into the office for posting this

We know who you are, and come in early on Friday, 9/18 so we can hand you your termination letter.

Have a nice weekend!

Ahhhh no ,, or Mookie Wilson !

 

[rod]

Who cares. Your off the clock. Upstate would have been fired a long time ago for admitting to driver releasing early am's at the building.

No way-------Upstate and his center manager are buds

 

[Covemastah]

Good times.

Was she STUGS helpah ???
Lol

I make no particular effort to hide who I am, and I have posted dozens of cute pics of dogs in the truck during the 7 years I have been on Brown Cafe. No one has said a word to me yet.

Several times I've searched for the uncensored version of that pic but it doesn't seem to be out there.

That makes my point exactly. If management hasn't figured who I am by now, then they never will.

You'd think they recognize a dog hopping in a PC and driving away.

 

[jaker]

Posting on the clock I do it all the time , I mean really when they want you to wait around for 30 min for a pickup what are you supposed to do

You're giving us far too much credit.

Just because they haven't, doesn't mean they can't.

It is against UPS policy to take pictures or recordings inside any UPS facility or vehicle.

In your case, they probably just see it as a cute dog and don't say anything to you.

Let someone complain about a safety hazard or the way the truck was loaded, with pictures included, and the outcome may not be the same as yours.

And yes, I know, UPS usually does allow you to take pictures of your schedule. But that is as far as it goes.

Exactly, especially if the dog has had knee replacements.

UPS is free to create whatever "policies" it wants to. However...any discipline they want to pursue for violation of those policies will be administered in accordance with the contract. So if they really wanted to look like idiots (and pay me $51 an hour on OT to sit in a meeting) they could theoretically issue me a warning letter. For taking a picture of a dog.

Its a risk I'm willing to take.
