Some of the cool conversations I had were with some really cool Cisco Systems folks that discussed the topic of Social Media and reputation management in regards to employment.

The story goes like this…

A prospective employee of Cisco “tweeted out”:

“Cisco just offered me a job! Now I have to weigh the utility of a fatty paycheck against the daily commute to San Jose and hating the work.”

To which a manager at Cisco who instantly saw the Tweet via an alert replied:

“Who is the hiring manager. I’m sure they would love to know that you will hate the work. We here at Cisco are versed in the web.”

It instantly went viral throughout Cisco and the web and needless to say there was no fatty paycheck to be had.

The offending tweeter will sport the Cisco Fatty moniker for quite sometime.

The folks at Cisco were big proponents of Social Media and the discussions were awesome!

Here is a video from the event:

I am such a huge fan of the conversations happening in the Credit Union Social Media Twitter-cosm that I literally walk around with my iPhone running the TweetDeck application faithfully churning out the tweets of the people I follow.

It is a lonely addiction.

There is no enclosed wifi, hotspot, bus-shelter type structure located outside of the offices for the Twitter addicts like myself to “drag” on the electronically fueled devices for communications from our friends in the industry.

Nope.

Those of you that are allowed to access Twitter from behind your corporate network undoubtedly enjoy the creature comforts of a large monitor screen to view and compose your Tweets.

In contrast, the “Guerilla Tweeters in the Mist” like myself must not only confine the conversation to 140 characters, but also do it discretely, and often mistakenly Reply to something we meant to Direct Message or worse yet, incorrectly link to or misspell something due to our genetically inferior “Twitter Thumbs.”

Can you imagine what our descendants would look like if Darwinism went into full effect and the hands of our relatives became these tiny stylus-like crab fingers because it was deemed a necessary trait for “survival of the fittest.”

So if my future offspring end up with mutated hands and fingers, I am going to blame some these folks I like to follow on Twitter:

  • @mmpartee Morris Partee – Great speaker and Web 2.0 genius (blog, website).
  • @Visible_Banking Christophe Langlois -Self-professed frenchman who lives in London, loves the US, passionate about social media & online advocacy in Finance, tracking 1,000+ initiatives in 30+ countries (blog).
  • @SonyaJMills Sonya Mills – Community Manager for Continuity Engine and super smart – I dig her tweets! (website)
  • @spurdave David Svet - Marketer with great links to everything social media – I always find something valuable to Retweet (website).
  • @CurrencyTim Tim McAlpine – True CU innovator and brilliant (blog).

Pay it forward and link to some of your favorite Twitter Friends on your respective blogs and #FollowFriday on Twitter and oh yeah, join my future relatives for Sushi – they’ll be using their fingers :)
