By now, everyone knows about 8/24, the day Blogsome Bay stood still. Everyone knows us addicts were shaking and twitching in our respective corners, waiting for a fix. But let’s talk about blogging and working. Most of us blog at work. There I said it. Even if we adjust the times of our post to look like we did it before we got there!! We aren’t fooling anyone. Our network administrators can tell what sites we go to and how often. Scarey I know!
Did you guys know people have gotten fired for blogging? Blogging about work?? Be careful. Having said that, I’m going to ignore my own advice. Yep, I’m gonna tell y’all what my boss had the nerve to do yesterday. *breath* I was home sick. More of a mental health day than anything. But that’s neither here nor there. We have procedures to notify the office when we won’t be in. I did.
Occasionally, and I mean super rarely, I get personal e-mails into my work box. As a result, after 3/4 of a work-day being ’sick’, I checked my e-mail. Boss responded to my ‘I’m sick today’ e-mail asking me about a file. Y’all a file!!!! She must have had a reciept on that e-mail because like 5 minutes after I opened it, before I was over my initial shock, my phone rings!!! You read right!!! My. Phone. RINGS!!
Say it with me: Hell. To. The. Muhfuggin’. Naw!!!!!
I’ve heard of this happening. Just like I’ve heard of ‘dutch’ dates. But I thought both were merely urban legends. Something that doesn’t really happen. Hey HR people, is this something you’d want to know?? I’ve been the boss of people and I would NEVUH call them at home when they are sick!! Never!! I’d also never write directly on resumes or cite questionable reasons for granting people interviews. But that’s just me.
Y’all. It’s a day later and I’m still undone!!! Wig split!!! I ended up sending her the file–only because it’s directly related to making sure my shyt goes well. And that is the only reason.
