So why should this stuff be held against us today?
Does it piss you off that employers do background checks?? What's the difference?? They're looking for the BEST candidate for the job, and if it comes down to two equal people, but one of the two is indiscreet enough to have rauchy/inappropriate pics on the Web, which do you think is going to get hired? Plus, if they are that indiscreet about what they post about THEMSELVES on the Web, how are they going to represent your comapany?? Are you going to go onto the Web later and serach for your company name (trust me, employers do it) and be happy when the employee you hired that had pics all over MySpace now has you listed as their employer and your name comes up listed next to pics of the employee pole dancing or pukeing....
