Frickin’ professionalism…
Allow me to say that I just wrote about 300 vehemently angry words about a topic that got me extremely annoyed. Some of what I wrote would have been very good for a certain person to read, if it caused them to think. I think this person really does need to perform some introspection on themselves and realize that what others see is correct and that they really need to stop putting their own flaws on everyone else. But I digress…
The point of this rant thus changed from one where I’m pissed at a certain individual to one where I’m pissed at the fact that professionality forced me to hold down the Backspace key for a prolonged period of time and delete the words which I think would have been good for someone to read. I really wish I could have posted what I was typing, but it’s good that I did not.
Perhaps now would be a good time to remind people that when your blog is out on the world, your employers can see it. Your potential employers can see it. Your family can see it. Your friends can see it. Perhaps this is a “duh” sort of statement, but I’ve seen some blogs out there that give a person’s first and last name, and then proceed to say some harsh, nasty things. If I were a potential employer, and I saw that about a potential employee, I might change my mind about hiring them! :)
However, this rant-change was not for nothing…I definitely feel better, even though I didn’t post the actual rant. :) If you’re that curious, post a comment with your actual e-mail address, and maybe I’ll send it to you. ;)
