Reply #25: I see the double standard on behalf of the companies - good point. [View All]

If the companies like how you represent their company on your own time, they are fine with it. But if they don't like it, they fire you!

In other words, companies will accept FREE positive PR from their employees all day long and say nothing about it to the employee. But as soon as that employee says or does something they don't like in their private life, they fire them.

Do you think that if the companies are going to take it upon themselves to fire people that provide "NEGATIVE PR", because the employee is stepping outside the bounds of their contract (by appointing themselves as PR reps without authorization), then they need to fire employees that provide positive PR as well because they too are stepping outside the bounds of their contract?

Or are you saying that in order for them to reserve the right to fire people who appoint themselves as "PR reps" in their private lives, they need to be compensating ALL people that do that (meaning the ones that provide positive PR)?
