Dear Work It Out,So I found out my employee blocked me on Instagram yet followed me on LinkedIn. Blocked*Dear Blocked,Here's something I feel pretty strongly about: With very few exceptions, bosses should not follow their employees on personal social media. If you've ever heard that gifts in a professional setting should only flow down the managerial ladder, on social media, especially Instagram and Facebook, it goes the other way. No matter how friendly you are with your boss or how cool they are, there's still the fear that you could be judged poorly based on something you posted on social media. While your employee may have blocked you on Instagram, adding you on LinkedIn shows they're not trying to burn any bridges.
