Yes, that info does get passed around without your permission. Or.... do you think you get credit card offers from what exactly? Secondly, you know what the point of a business card is right? You can't complain that your information that you put on a business card that you gave out became public. There is a complete difference between application (depending on the type of application. Your information will be passed out for credit card apps or store card apps... or hell even scholarship apps) and handing out your business card

I can tell you with 100% certainty you don't need to give out more than your first name and position in the company. I was a manager at little caesars and delt with complaints all the time. "I wanted a fresh pizza made personally 2 minutes before the store closed. This is unacceptable"


Wow, just wow. Talk about a guy who just doesn't get things in context.

pub·lic

[puhb-lik]

adjective

1.
of, pertaining to, or affecting a population or a community as a whole: public funds; a public nuisance.
2.
done, made, acting, etc., for the community as a whole: public prosecution.
3.
open to all persons: a public meeting.

Those companies that buy your information to send you credit card offers? They buy them from places that usually tell you in the agreement form that your information may be given to a third party, but at no point does it become "public." It's still shared privately between companies, not made available for any and every interested party to see. That's a lot different than taking a guy's business card and then randomly giving it away to unsuspecting customers in a Gamestop.

And by the way, most of the credit card spam I get in the mail say "RESIDENT OF [insert address here]," meaning they don't have my personal info in the first place, otherwise that would be my name in the "To" field.

Forgive me, but I'll still take it upon myself to find out more information from someone who I feel is actually qualified to answer that kind of question. Given your lack of knowledge about customer rights, your inability to put things in context and your terrifying logic regarding privacy, I can see why you are no longer a manager.

I ask again, do you know what the point of a business card is? Because it doesn't seem like you do. Business cards are a way to get your name out there and if your name gets out there you can't complain that your name is out there... thats asinine.

I'm no longer a manager because I quit. Nothing more than that. And if I so wanted I could walk into almost any fast food restuarant and apply for another manager spot and get it. But hey, you want to talk about lack of my knowledge then think that she should have given her last name and obviously don't know what a business cards purpose is
