Yesterday I read an article by @JasonKeath entitled 54 Warning Signs That You Work In Social Media.

I found it a therapeutic read, and I thought I might feel better to get some other truths off of my chest.

1) You have at least 2 twitter apps on your smartphone, and have run Tweetdeck, Hootsuite, Tweetadder, and Tweetgrid simultaneously.

2) It takes great restraint on your part to not give the silent treatment to people who say “I just don’t GET twitter.”

3) You have been scouted for a job and made it to the phone interview phase, based solely on twitter interactions.

4) The job referenced above is one that didn’t exist 10 years ago.

5) When you meet people at networking events, you avoid addressing them directly because you can only remember their twitter handle, and not their actual name.

6) You have relatives who aren’t on twitter, but check your twitter stream daily.

7) Auto DM’s are one of your Deal Breakers

8.) You used to like @Klout until they offered you Axe body spray instead of a Windows Phone.

9) Posting something on Facebook makes it more real.

10) You mentally criticize people with no vision for their Personal Brand.

11) Children in your life believe that you are famous, because they saw your image on a webpage or Youtube video.

12) You have ever gotten a super exciting opportunity that took so much explanation to a non-SocMe person, you vowed to keep such things to yourself from that moment on.

13) You compulsively check for a WiFi signal, even while zip-lining in the tropics.

I might have taken the above photo while zip-lining in the tropics. With my smartphone in my bra.

14) You are too ill to stand, but you muster the energy to grab your smartphone and check your various pages. Maybe even “like” a thing or two.

15) Admit it: you don’t fully turn off your device before take off and landing.

16) Your self worth rises proportionately with the amount of likes, comments, replies, and retweets you receive each day.

17) It irks you when the Real Life person doesn’t look like their avatar.

18) You use hashtags outside of twitter, and if you could figure out how to speak them, you would.

19) The majority of your Facebook friends are people who you initially met through social media.

20) You don’t like to admit it, but you are actually more excited about your next social media conference than you are about your birthday, most holidays, and your niece’s wedding.
