This appeared
on my Facebook feed today posted from the IBMS’s official
Facebook account. A harmless joke… maybe.
Howe
times have changed. Twelve years ago whilst on a night shift I posted a selfie
saying I was tired. It wasn’t possible to see any of the background in that
selfie, but I still got a formal disciplinary warning for bringing the
profession into disrepute.
I was
told at the time that any mention of work whatsoever on Facebook was immediate
grounds for formal disciplinary action.
The manager
at the time would have laid an egg over what our professional body today see as
rather amusing.
I was
tempted to tag him in a comment on that post but thought better of it. Twelve
years have passed; I doubt he’d remember.
I do though…
