Ever Googled your name?

Mine yields a tragic boating accident in which all of my firearms were lost... sad sad day.. [Bang]

Want something even more crazy- google your phone number... like this:
###-###-####
Mine came up with someone who is using my number on a community, he lives in Aurora. I'm glad no one has called me asking for him!

Yup.

I recently got a new job. While I was interviewing, the lady I was talking to on the phone had a question that threw me off guard a bit...partial transcript below

Lady - "So, you're a dancer, huh?"
Me - "uh, uh, no, where did you get that idea?"
Lady - "Saw a picture of you online."

I started to freak when she said this. I am NOT a dancer of any sort and the only dancing I have ever done was while VERY, VERY drunk. I got to worrying that someone had posted some party pics of me...entirely possible. So when we got off the phone I went straight to Google. First thing that popped up with my name is a guy dancing...but not me. It was some tool wearing ballet shoes doing the splits in mid air. Almost worse than her seeing a party pic of me is her thinking I am a ballet dancer. I explained that the picture wasn’t me the next time we talked and later got the job.

Moral of the story. It is a must that you Google yourself to make sure there is nothing crazy that someone else has posted about you, especially if looking for a new job. Almost ALL employers now google candidates and look them up on Facebook and such. Clear your name, remove any public pictures and do so often. You never know if a friend will post a compromising picture of you that can cost you your dream job.

I get some actor who killed his wife. You have to get fairly specific to find the real me.

I get my LinkedIn profile, another dude's Google + profile and then my Google + profile.

Haha 6 of the 10 google results were of me and 5 of those were links to videos.

seems I have someone of the same name in Colorado Springs.
Given my real name its odd to say the least.
He is in Real estate
