Fired for his blog?
While I’m a firm believer in the idea that what one posts to their website (or any other for that matter) on their own time should have no bearing on his/her employment, and while I was fired for running off my mouth - or keyboard, as the case may have been - and posting too much on my blog, I really have no sympathy for someone whose first post to his blog states “I shouldn’t be doing this” and then winds up without a job. He knew what he was doing would most likely be frowned upon, and he did it anyway.
