DH tagging me in a FB post that my customers can see

[imhoppingmad]

I'm hopping mad right now! My DH is off today (his first day off in a week) and he's having a lovely day in the garden. He just cracked open a cider, took a photo and posted it to FB, tagging me, basically saying that "we" are in the garden drinking cider.

I am not! I am inside working. I am friends on FB with my clients who I am working for right now. They will have seen the post. I've taken it down now. I am so mad at him! I was going to join him after I finish for the day, but I'm now sitting inside seething at his stupidity. I feel like just sacking our evening plans off entirely.

How could he be so silly?

🙄

You need to learn how to keep different parts of your life separate.

So what if you did spend a bank holiday Monday in the sun having a cider? What business is it of your clients?

If the issue is that you’d be billing them for work done today presumably you’d have the proof you’ve done it? I can’t see the issue!

Don't have clients on your personal account.
Don't have your personal account under the name your clients know you by, so they can't search you.

That’s why you keep your personal and work life separate OP. I have never fb friended any of my work colleagues even the ones I consider friends. Not until I’ve left the job. Your mistake not his.

Get drunk and father children. What did you think it means.😁

Thanks Goats. It's so obvious now!

Good old Facebook. I haven't heard this sort of complaint since about 2010. Back in the day everyone used to make the worst assumptions going by stuff they'd seen on it, and people would fall out without talking to each other.

Is he usually supportive of your business?

Yes i would also recommend keeping personal and business separate

Come on op… now give us the mega drip that the marriage has been on its knees for some time?

You could have just replied with "I wish - i'm working away in this heat"

I guess if have added a post saying 'I'm bloody not you lazy git! I'm indoors working.'

Surely that would have been better than taking the post down after it had been seen? Make a joke of it?

”don’t know what woman is drinking cider with you dh, but it’s not me as I’m in my office working. We shall speak when I’m finished work 🤨”

Simple 🤷‍♀️

I was going to join him after I finish for the day, but I'm now sitting inside seething at his stupidity. I feel like just sacking our evening plans off entirely.

So you’re going to ruin the whole evening because of this? Are you usually this highly strung?

MN seems full of women determined to overreact about every little thing their husband does.

Someone will be along shortly to tell you he’s controlling and you should LTB.

I think it depends on what kind of work. If you have set hours or tight deadlines or need to speak on the phone to people then yes I would be annoyed. And it does look unprofessional if your SM is very business focused. But if the work is a bit more casual or fully laptop then one drink while working in the garden is a perk of WFH IMO

Couple of things. What is the business? this matters. Also just because you are sitting in your garden doesn’t mean you are not working. I will 100% post my garden set up tomorrow on my business page. Kids off in the pool and me sitting in the garden supervising them and working at the same the time. For my business people like to know we are real, we understand them and are down to earth because the industry I work in comes across as stuck up etc so we gain a lot of referrals by showing we are not

Good god what a massive overreaction.

All you needed to do was post on it 'I wish, some of us have to work today 😂' and there would be no issue. In fact, what you have done is make it look even worse by deleting the post that some may already have seen.

You are really hopping mad at him and thinking of sacking off your evening plans over this? And are now sulking inside instead of enjoying your evening.

I think you honestly need to chill out a bit. To be honest most people are enjoying their own Bank Holiday and will most likely not give a toss.

If the clients pay you per project, it is absolutely fine. However, if you are billing them per hour, give your dh a good telling-off.

Why can your clients see your personal social
media?

I would be so pissed off!

Just because you WFH doesn’t mean your job is not just as important as his.

Imagine him going to a conference for work and you tagging him saying he’s actually in the pub.

It’s completely unacceptable.
I don’t know why posters are trying to put the blame on you for not changing your settings.
They must be in marriages where their DHs lie or embarrass them regularly but most couples aren’t like that.

There is plenty that's unreasonable about this, and it goes in this order:

1. That you give a shit about Facebook
2. That you have business clients on a personal account
3. That you don't have tag approvals switched on, most people worked that out in 2011.

give your dh a good telling-off

DH isn't responsible for the way op manages her social media accounts.

Together?

Wow…. Living with you must be akin to walking on egg shells!
