I'm becoming a Facebook hater

[Tucsondriver]

I signed up a few weeks ago because everyone was saying it's one of those things you have to do to network and be visible while looking for work. It's annoying the **** out of me. If I wanted to get in touch with people I went to high school with, I would. I don't care what you're making for dinner and I don't care that you're sick of traffic. I'm not interested in the trivial details of everyone's life. Just because it happened doesn't make it interesting. And yet, truth be told, I still look.

The irony is strong in this one.

Ya think?

If you don't like it, then .... don't .... log .... on.

 

[pressmurphy]

Or, if professional networking is your sole goal because you have no need for interacting with friends, try LinkedIn.com.

Tucsondriver just threw a glass of haterade at Facebook.

 

[ArnoldBabar]

He's just mad because no one will superpoke him.

Seriously, if you're not getting any thing out of it -- and apparently it's going so far as to upset you -- just don't do it anymore. It ain't rocket surgery.

The "deactivate account" feature will work wonders.

Haha. Nice.

 

[Tucsondriver]

Hey, I know I can deactivate my account or just never visit. I just find the postings a bit annoying, yet I keep looking. Can't someone complain about all the Jacko coverage but still watch? And if Anything Goes isn't an appropriate forum to vent, then where?

Tucsondriver, I hear what you're saying. Facebook has a way of sucking people in.

I must say, though, that I loved 2MCM's post.

(There is a "We want a Dislike Option" group out there. I suggest that you NOT waste time searching for and joining said group )
