Getting fired for bl0gging

Getting fired for bl0gging 08/06/2004 10:11 PM
Another person gets fired for their blog. This is a strange story, the blog is here, and her former employer is here. According to the story, she was fired due to a complaint from a local, but it sounds like another factor was the blog outdoing the main site in Google searches. Of course it's only half the story, but this seems weirder than any previous occurrence.

No, not me. (But would it surprise you?) It seems that Friendster, who had no policy at all on employee blogging, has fired Joyce Park. You may remember her from such debates as Java vs. PHP. Or maybe her book. Or maybe mod_pubsub (blog). Take a minute. Go read her blog. See what you can find that's so offensive to the company that they had to fire her. I'm really resisting the urge to say what I really think...

The IM Virus That Got Someone Fired

The IM Virus That Got Someone Fired 06/30/2004 07:37 AM
While I'm not saying this couldn't happen, this story of someone who got fired when an IM virus sent out all of his past conversations to everyone on his buddy list certainly has the sound of an urban legend. First, no names or info are given. Second, the story is being told by an exec from a company offering software for enterprise instant messaging that would (in theory) protect against such attacks. If this were a real virus, wouldn't there be plenty of stories about such things? Instead, it seems like this is the only guy who's heard of it. The story sounds too simple to be true. After all of his old conversation were passed on to everyone else, the story goes, he got fired because an old conversation that was passed on to partners at his firm included negative comments about some of them. Once again, it certainly is possible that this happened (or that it will happen in the future). It just seems that the circumstances by which this information came out are a bit suspect.

A man in West Virginia was fired for heckling President Bush at a campaign rally, according to the Saturday Gazette-Mail: Glen Hiller, of Berkeley Springs, was escorted from the Hedgesville High School event on Tuesday after shouting comments about the Iraq war and the failure to find weapons of mass destruction there. The crowd had easily drowned out Hiller with cheers of "Four More Years, Four More Years.'' Arriving at his job with Octavo Designs in Frederick, Md., on Wednesday morning, Hiller said he was told that he had embarrassed and offended a client who had provided the tickets to...

King Mswati of Swaziland has enraged local lawmakers after it emerged he instructed his attorney general to fire Prime Minister Sibusiso Dlamini by SMS text message.
