I’m back!
Just came back from Minneapolis tonight. Boy am I tired. I read this article in the USA today financial section about how this guy was fired because of the things he said about his employer in his blog. What ever happened to Freedom of Speech? Why can’t they handle the truth? So what if it’s announced in a public space where thousands of people can read it? I don’t know man, what if we were told that we couldn’t have our friendster profiles because it had our affiliations and it wasn’t in line with the principles of our workplaces? Do we remove all aspects of our personal lives on the web if we mention our workplace?

Blogs are protected speech, I think we are going to see a lot of lawsuits in the future. But of course these fucking employers think b/c they give you a paycheck they can OWN your soul and thoughts and even make you sign bullshit gag orders… news to them FUCK YOU - if these employers spent more time wondering why employees were so pissed off (ahem like mine) maybe they wouldn’t need to get all defensive. Problem is most companies can “do no wrong” somehow it’s always the employee who is somehow bad… hmmmm I am so glad I am a socialist, when can I quit my job and fight the man and still pay my mortgage?!
