Rick,

Nothing personal, but I think this is a bit ridiculous. I normally try to play nice, but I don’t think we need yet another way of communicating. So far, you have my home phone, cell phone, email address, office phone. Isn’t that enough to reach me? Our days are already one big cluster with all of the info coming at us from different directions. Do we really need another? How is this supposed to help us?

Another issue I have is with privacy. I don’t have any social network accounts set up because I don’t want people being able to track or snoop on my personal life. I don’t feel the need to let people know when I’m taking a . We’ve already seen the damage that is done to people’s lives and how they are fired or denied jobs or credit because of something they said online 10 years earlier. Now companies are demanding people submit their account names and passwords as part of their job interview.

I thought you were being propositioned

Door to my supervisor's office is closed. Will continue to live-blog and monitor situation as it develops...

boss: hey can you do this?
employee: nothing personal, but you

William is back at his work station. Appears he just got a stern talking to and is not being escorted out of the building.

These don't seem to go together.

These don't seem to go together.

I can see sending that email to just the boss, but he CC'd everybody. It's like he's calling the boss out in front of everybody. Looks like somebody's got a case of the tuesdays.

, at my company about 90% of the person-to-person that's not done via email is done via the corporate messenger product. But yeah, William will learn you never try to call your boss an idiot via blastogram.

findog thinks hes already too old to be an AIM user imo, his AIM years be long past
