This is unimportant in the scheme of things but I just gotta get it off my chest. In my industry it’s a huge norm for people to use their social media (mostly Instagram) to connect with work colleagues and brand suppliers and promote the products we sell. It’s like free advertising that you’re just expected to do. No one has said anything to me about it, but I’m constantly getting follow requests from professional contacts and it irritates the hell out of me. I mostly post selfies and dumb shit and pictures of my cats. It’s content for my friends, not for work. I let coworkers from my same company follow me, cause I’m cool with them, but then I see them posting about our brands and it feels so bootlicky. /rant
