You can preface that this is a personal account and you aren’t representing the company. But they can always fire you. Because you can’t waive the liability and rights of others.

What is a solid legal disclaimer for a personal social media account about my job?
I understand the importance of protecting your personal social media accounts. Are you looking to include a disclaimer about your job to avoid any potential conflicts or misunderstandings?
Yes. I don’t want to be held liable for any content related to my account.
Are there specific aspects of your job that you want to make sure are covered in the disclaimer, such as confidentiality or representing your employer’s views?
Yes.
Is there anything else the lawyer should know before I connect you? Rest assured they’ll be able to help with your disclaimer for your personal social media account.

So you are using a personal account to discuss employment topics? I don't understand the use of this and the question. I am sorry.
Or are you trying to get a waiver of personal liability on a social media account so the employer can’t use it against you?
I want to create a social media account for personal use to joke about everyday life as a business driver.
Ok. The employer doesn’t have to care. Anything you personally post can always be actionable. Actions have consequences. The employer would have to agree to this — and they won’t.
They have a social media policy.
So if you violate it, then they’d terminate you.
