PURPOSIVE COMMUNICATION LESSON 2
2 Think before you post.
› It’s almost guaranteed that organizations (and many
people) monitor social media for anything that
mentions them.
› This means that potential employers and others are
likely to see what you post about them.
› Consider the fate of a high school student who tweeted
rude remarks about other students while visiting a
college she hoped to attend. University decision
makers saw her posts and put her on the “no” list.
› Most people understand that using mobile devices in social settings is distracting
and annoying.
› Even if you think you can understand others while dealing with communication
media, it's important to realize that they may perceive you as being rude.
