These People Deeply Regret Posting To Twitter And It's Not Hard To See Why

Some people today consider our world to be enveloped in "outrage culture," where mistakes made online, no matter how big or small, don't always warrant the reactions and public outcry they receive. Often, there is a significant amount of controversy surrounding what social media is outraged about, and much of it seems quite warranted.

However, not everything on the Internet today is negative. Sometimes, our biggest mistakes aren't about that genuinely bad word we said two years ago, but rather more innocent errors that are just part of the process of growing up on social media. If anything can be learned from the mistakes we're going to laugh at today, it's to be mindful of what we post on social media and to raise our children to understand: the Internet never forgets. Think before you tweet!

1. WHY would you do this?

This should have been common sense, but by golly, we can all learn a lesson here, I guess! Don't post your driver's license on Twitter. Don't post your Social Security number on Twitter. Don't post your intimate details on Twitter!

2. Do you have a job?

It's becoming common knowledge that prospective employers might look you up on social media. It's also important to remember that if you friend or follow coworkers and bosses, they will see the way you speak about work, clients, and colleagues.

This boss decided to teach his employees a lesson by printing out one employee's tweets and posting them in the office.
