My nephew has already felt this sting in a few ways. Of course, his own stupidity isn't helping.
Twice he has been turned down for jobs because the person who looked over his application did a a Google search on him. He found his mug shot from when he broke into a car and they found his Facebook which is covered with pictures of him drinking booze (he is 18), smoking weed, and he and his other white friends calling each other the N word.
I told him he either needs to fix his Facebook page and get rid of those pictures and posts or make the entire thing private. He refuses to do it because he insists that what he does on his free time shouldn't matter with a job. When I point out that so far what he has done on his free time has cost him two jobs he just calls those people assholes he wouldn't want to work for anyway.
So he continues on, a soon to be 19-year-old who has never worked a day in his life. His mistakes and idiocy are broadcast to the world and I'm sure they will come back to haunt him again in the future.
