DUN DUN DUN NA! You've been tagged! Oh my is that administrative assistant Sally doing a one hand handstand on a table..in a mini skirt...with a funnel in her mouth chugging Heiniken? Flash forward to Monday

Dear Sally we've called you into the office this morning, because you're an idiot and in the words of Donald Trump. "You're Fired".

Sally why did you get fired? Because you didn't take into account the other night when you were dancing to party in the USA living it up like your college days that come Monday morning those picture of you would be on Facebook. Innocently posted of course but you forgot this is the digital age, it makes the whole world seem like a one stop sign town. Word travels fast and so do pictures and your reputation. So here's a hint.. if you work in a professional environment DELETE FACEBOOK. Calm down you don't have to do that just making sure you're with me. However some other wise things to consider might be to tell your friends before you've put Mr. Jack Daniels in your mouth to please not post any pictures on Facebook. Go to Wal- Mart make a cd or have them printed then you can keep them in a box and pull them out with your friends and laugh saying, oh...look at me and your friend Brittany will go yea..you slut. *giggle giggle*and you'll still go to work Monday and Tuesday and so on.

Or post a sweet innocent picture of you and then secure your Facebook so that it doesnt show your wall with all your friends saying oh my god I can't believe you took your clothes off and danced to Single Ladies on Dave's coffee table last night. Or hey can't wait for our "Sick Day" from work to go shopping, bath and body have a sale *giggle giggle...you're fired and I slap you with a shoe.

To me it's just obvious if you're going to put yourself out there in a professional working environment that you need to monitor the social websites you're on. Do you need this article to tell you not to talk about your boss, your job, your co-workers on a 400 million active user site? *shakes head in shame*..le sigh..I guess we do and that's a shame.

If you don't understand the digital age by now you may read this article, everyone else lets sit back and laugh and remember that these same reasons could prevent you from getting hired as well. Sneaky little employees checking up on your before they make their decision..who knew?
