How do I address an unwanted Facebook friend request from a colleague/manager?

Chuck, Twitter

There are a few ways you can approach this: a) Either have a blanket rule that doesn’t allow you to accept any friendship request from a colleague to prevent any animosity; b) Accept the friendship but limit your colleague/managers’ access immediately through your privacy settings; c) Create a secondary profile for professional relationships; d) Suggest they find you on LinkedIn; or e) Change jobs.

When is it appropriate to tie a tie like this?
