    If you and your significant other are having an argument, it's okay to blast the conflict online back and forth at each other.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Blasting the conflict online back and forth at each other is not okay when having an argument with your significant other. Engaging in public arguments can escalate the situation, damage the relationship, and create unnecessary drama. It is important to communicate and resolve conflicts privately, with respect and understanding for each other's feelings. Sharing personal issues online can also lead to unwanted attention and negative consequences. Therefore, it is not advisable to blast conflicts online in a back and forth manner.

    If you can't stand your job or your boss, the BEST thing you should do is:

    • Tell everybody on Facebook.

    • Tell your closest friends in an email.

    • Tell your co-workers at lunchtime.

    • Keep it to yourself.

    Correct Answer
    A. Keep it to yourself.
    Explanation
    The best thing to do when you can't stand your job or your boss is to keep it to yourself. Sharing negative feelings about your job or boss on social media like Facebook can have negative consequences, such as damaging your professional reputation or even getting you fired. Sharing your frustrations with close friends in an email can also be risky, as emails can be easily forwarded or shared without your knowledge. Telling your co-workers at lunchtime may create a negative work environment and may not lead to any positive solutions. Keeping it to yourself allows you to maintain professionalism and explore other options without causing unnecessary conflicts or repercussions.

    Employers are turned off by inappropriate photos, crude and vulgar comments, profanity, and membership in certain groups on social media. These actions and content can reflect poorly on an individual's professionalism and character, which may negatively impact their chances of being hired or maintaining employment. Employers value candidates who present themselves in a respectful and appropriate manner both online and offline.

This helps protect your personal information and prevent unauthorized tagging. Security is also a valid answer as it encompasses the protection of personal data and ensuring that only authorized individuals have access to it.
