Please check back the old stuff you posted on social media.

Many celebrities got their careers ruined because of something racist,sexist or offensive they posted on twitter when they are like 12 to 15 years old. Also some people got fired from their job because something they posted when they are younger suddenly got viral.

Many of us are stupid when we were young, so look back at some things you posted online because they might hunt you back. Suddenly I remember the job I didn't get because when the company I applied for search for my name on the internet, My Spring break pictures are part of the results. You know what are the stupid things people do at Spring break.

Look back at your internet activity history and delete anything that can haunt you back.

[Moving topic to appropriate forum section!]
Hello!
You are completely right :) And I care about that since... ever :)
What we share in social media networks, for many people, are the only things that they know about us... so, for them, we are exactly like that (and people are always ready to judge).
That's why we must think before share something... photos, videos, news and many other things.

I am really not worried about my postings on social media for three reasons!

1. I don't use Social Media any more and in the past also I used it very restrictively...still I am not worried about anything which I am explaining in second point!

2 .Because, as explained you yesterday in one of the posts that I belong to the school of thoughts who feel bad and consider people using abusive Language! So it is out of question any of of my posts will make any negative impact on me!

3. Now I have arrived at an age where I need not search for a new job that is online! As my profession is totally different from most of the traditional jobs and at this age also I am a hot cake in the market because of my experience! Thanks!

I started using facebook in 2010, however, I was active only in 2012. In 2013 I deleted my old stuff and gave a first start

I do not have to worry about this because I am very careful about what I am sharing online.

I do not have to worry because I hardly post anything other than my writing work that I want to promote. And I do not use any abusive or offensive language. I am not so active on social media and it has even reduced after I joined few forum sites.

It's not bad to google yourself and check out the results.
