I have a bit of a conundrum. I have my Twitter, which is public, and my Facebook, which is private. Two three four people, not counting family, know about my Twitter and Facebook. Two know about this here blog.
Today my boss from the Store talked to me on Facebook. Nothing bad, just about me visiting. But the problem lies with the fact that I’ve written about the Store on this blog, which is linked to my Twitter, which can be traced to my Facebook. Maybe not extensively but enough. And even though I know this isn’t one of those blogs that everyone and their mother reads, it’s still kind of scary to think that potential employers might read what I’ve written. And so I’ve decided to go back and mark my work posts as readable only with a password. Because WordPress is cool and lets me do neat stuff like that. I don’t really want to delete them or make them private but I also don’t want those crazy potential employers of mine to accidentally stumble upon some rant about Store customers. That would suck.
At the moment, stuff about the Store is pretty much on hold anyway. I haven’t written about it in ages because I haven’t work since Christmas. In the future, however, all entries will be password protected unless I can figure out something different or I decide to just unpublish the lot of them. I don’t think I’ve written anything negative about my work experiences but I just don’t want something coming back and biting me in the butt.
Thus, all posts written about work or the Store have been password protected. If you’d like to go back and read ‘em, feel free to leave me a comment and I’ll email you the password.

I don’t write about my current employer for this very reason. Too hard to remember who can be told what where.
It’s really tough to walk the thin line between reality and blogging. I’m a teacher and I’ve totally walked to the line and punched it in the face many times. I can completely sympathize.
