A guy I work with was discovered today, sort of. It's not what you think. It's not, like, "good."

A proofreader here was let go yesterday. That's a whole other story which I've already told once and am therefore bored of it. Anyway, this morning a temp agency sent in another poor girl to interview for the position.

During the interview, with a manager and the location director, this girl mentioned that she had done a google search for this company and the only thing that came up was some resume from some guy named C. Heh.

Apparently this guy has his resume posted to his personal website. That's all fine, sort of. I mean, we're all temps here. He's been a "temp" for over 2 years. This company uses "temps" in order to not have to pay out benefits or days off to all their workers. 50% of the people who work here are temps, including me and my sorry ass.

Well, the resume in and of itself is only a little bad, in the sense that it demonstrates that C is actively looking for another job.

But if anyone wanted to look two more clicks closer, they'd find C's blog, which goes on and on and on. and on. and on, about how sucky his job is and how horrible the management is.

The managers thought it was funny when they were nice enough to tell C of this girl's comment. Apparently they hadn't actually done the search themselves. C then went on to frantically erase his entire blog.

Blogs are dangerous. Tell your friends.
