This post is dedicated to my good friend who just got fired because he writes a blog which has some very very small related stuff about work.
The real reason is that his company is cutting cost and have targeted him.
There is no doubt about it, this will get messy. The claim is very dodgy, his blog is much less revealing than mine.
When I saw his tweet, I said to him, I am so fired too. But come on, there wasn’t anything confidential whatsoever, it is the most tiny of evidence that the company has used. Shame on them!
Everyone is obviously supporting him and I should expect the full tribunal thing coming up. But still at the end of the day, the job is gone, may be just little bit more compensation.
So I thought will I get fired, might be I just need to check all my blog entries now to see if I have offended anyone.
But I know that I would have the decency to say it to their faces too.
At the same time, I should also read my contract, to see if writing a blog relating to work break any rules.
In the modern world of facebooking, blogging, tweeting. It is so easy. I think we have to sensible here, if there is commercial sensitive material leak then yes. But there are many grey areas.
Just to balance it,
I love what I do, I have no intention of giving up what I do. I love all my colleagues, they are all great. Everyone is a superconsultant.
If you still don’t know what I do and who I work for then google “the best environmental consultancy in the world”
I AM NOT JOKING, but the first result is really it… unbelievable!!!
This should do to show my true appreciation of my employer, so please don’t sack me…..
long may blogging be continue…
