| Jan 28, 2020 at 16:10 | comment | added | DarkCygnus♦ | @Harper-ReinstateMonica Thanks for your suggestion. Honestly, each day I use Facebook less and less... also, in a way I am telling OP "not to foo the bar", by suggesting not to use Facebook as professional network. I thank your feedback, but I already suggested a course of action for the actual question asked (block, report, etc.). Surely there can be coworkers that are not noxious and that one can accept their requests and don't get harassed :) but if/when to accept/reject them should be done in a case-by-case basis and is also something only OP can decide (also why I won't elaborate on that) | |

The social aspects of Facebook are positively corrosive, which is why I tell my over-50 friends "don't join". You will have your coworkers try to friend you on Facebook, and there's not a darned thing you can do about it. Anything you do is either rude, or crossing that line you speak of. So this answer would be much improved by fleshing out how to do that, instead of just armwaving that it's surely possible. | |

For professional networking places like LInkedIn are more focused on the professional aspect. Facebook is more personal and informal in a way. | |
