blocking someone from facebook

October 3, 2012 9:29am CST
today I have decided to block my supervisor from my facebook account. this supervisor whom I trusted so much has backstabbed me and told our director about a thing that i had done although it was considerable. I hate her so much and I dont trust her anymore. she made me cry a lot and she just laughed at me. I did not believe my colleagues before when they told me to be careful around her. Now i learned that lesson in a hard way. Good riddance to her. to you mylotters are you befriending your supervisor on facebook? have you tried blocking a friend?

I have blocked people on face book lots of times, some were friends, some were relations and some were people I use to know. I can not see why people have to stab other people in the back, no matter what. I have learnt over the years that the only person that you can trust is yourself, as even the people that you thought you knew and thought you could trust and have been friends with for years, can turn out to be the worst types of people to be friends with.

hi jugsjugs I remember so=mething about your best fri end and your husband, are you okay now? I think you and I both started here on mylot about the same time. I do have an account with facebook but do not go there much.I hate it when people you thought were your friends turn on you like that. Hope you are okay. I have always admired how you cared for all your kids and still managed to come here too and with your health concerns too.nice to see you posting again h ugs from hatley.

yes it will be invisible and I would like that so that he/ she will stop looking at my wall and I can have peace of mind and I can rant all I want because of my hate to her.

I dont allow any of my boss and parents from friends to see my activity . The private setting is also very good , allowing them to see only what you want them to see. Whatever your supervisor do to you , will return to her one day . I dont want my supervisor in my personal life so I dont give them my facebook email.

i do hope that it will return to her sooner and later because I hate her so much. I am just her staff and I cannot do anything to harm her because I dont want to lose my job and I am afraid of the Lord so maybe I will just wait for karma to come upon her. yes the private setting is a very useful one.

Yes i blocked some of annoying friends from my facebook friendlist. because i think we're trying to make friends here in facebook. It's better i blocked them from starting a 'war' before do something annoying to me.

hi there dhika! I do believe that for us to stay friends at the real world or maybe even be civil with each other, we must have boundaries and one of them is on facebook. it is our space and it should be that we are free to rant and say anything there

I can identify with this whole heartedly. I once made the mistake of becoming too close with my supervisor which eventually made my workplace unbearable. There's something to be said for not mixing business with pleasure. If you keep anything unrelated to work away from your work you have a much better chance of success. I hope everything turns out okay on your end.

hi there lrpt! yes, we must not mix business with pleasure or we will end up being saddened by both of them being ubearable. right now I am not talking to my supervisor like before and I just treat her as it is, a supervisor and not a friend anymore

hi there hatley. a nasty supervisor is really demotivating on the job but then we have to work to pay our bills and also for food so we have no choice but to adjust to their nasty behavior. I dont play games on facebook too

Hi katrina... I tried blocking a friend because we became enemies for unreasonable things. I once put my manager under "restricted" because I hate him that time when he does nothing in the office but sleep. Some friends, I only put under restricted because I just don't want them to see my status updates. Sometimes they're so annoying telling you in the office what you posted on facebook. Good luck on dealing with your supervisor. Hope you can resolve your issue in a good way. Have a nice day!

hi there adnileb! we have already resolved the issue but then I cannot forget what she did to me and that she broke my trust and I am not looking up to her anymore because of that. maybe in the future we can be friends again but for now I dont want to see her face even in facebook

No, I have not block anyone in facebook. But someone have blocked me. This happened just recently. This scammer tried to recruit a friend to invest to his dirty scheme. I had a long discussion with this scammer on his facebook account even bragging me I can't provide any proof. Then when I give him the proof that he wanted he just blocked me. Befriending your supervisor, or anyone else has it's own risk in facebook or in real life. I just feel sorry for what happened to you. Cheers! Your tears not worth for her.

hi there romzee. my bestfriend also told me that my tears are not worth for her. I already cried those tears because I was afraid of what they can do to me. but then right now I have gotten over it and I am just moving on with my life and learning my lessons. thank you and happy mylotting
