Be careful what you blog — your boss may be reading

The New York Times had a Q&A article on blogging about your job without getting fired. The basic advice: Be very, very careful. Standards are subjective. And being anonymous doesn’t help if your boss can trace it to you.
So you might want to watch out what you post on our comments. And in case Lou Heldman happens to see this, let me also add: The Eagle is a really great place to work.

    Hey Nola,I’m self-employed, but I’m still afraid my boss’ll find out I’m on here- he’s the worst slave-driving son of a bitch I ever worked for! Don’t tell him!
