My New Job: Writing Dangerously



Mistake number one was telling anyone at my new job about my blog.

Good decision number one was making a rule that no one at my new job becomes my Facebook friend.

Social networking policies ... we all have to create them for ourselves. Rules to live by in our fake little online worlds.

I wrote something that I thought came out awesome, but it's about my new job. Some of it is harsh, some is funny, maybe it's poignant. I was feeling it so I wrote it but then was advised not to release it into the world. Boo!

So the piece sits ... somewhere on the Great World Wide Web I weave ...

I hope one day I feel liberated to publish here. In the meantime, anyone who wants to read some of the reasons I tweet what I do ... email me.

Oh, I could tell you stories, horrible stories about my blog life and my real life colliding. So, not good.

I write my blog knowing that my family, friends, diet partners, husband, and old high school friends read my blog. I edit every word that I write to make sure I'd be fine reading it to my mother the next day. This is just how i decided to set it up.

Facebook is nearly the same, but I'm leaning towards Family, HighSchool acquaintances (I'm in charge of the 25th reunion, so I'm friending everyone I can find from our school) but I will not friend anyone from my weightloss group. It's sort of like my job and they already know a lot about me. Facebook is one place I don't allow them to overlap.
