Its improper to talk about YOUR work on your blog
But its fine if Richard P. Titus over in Undergraduate Admissions talks about my work. Once I recovered from the mini-stroke slash hernia, I did some double time backtracking only to figure out that this info is officially sanctioned info for viewing by the big man himself. So its not like he's spilling state secrets. I just thought the data was supposed to be a state secret. I hope that doesn't mean I am going to go back and turn 348 mandates into 348 PDF's and put them on display.
Anyway, I'm still not going to talk about my work, and I'm not in any way bothered that Rick talked about my work, however it does open up some avenues if I ever want to talk about some other department on campus.
Now listen up people, have I got a story to tell about ISOM you won't believe...
Just kidding.
Comments
I think you're on to something here, Woody. We could swap work-related stories! That way we finally get a chance to publicly vent, but technically bear no liability for posting the stories on our blogs.
Of course me posting this in your Comments section will sorta unravel this whole operation.
Have a good weekend, man!

My boss says I complain too much about work already.
:D
But do you ever have those days working with the customers when you think you are trapped in the movie "Clerks"?

I know I do!
*hee* Sorry boys, had to break in there.

Maybe we should start a whole other completely anonymous blog where we could all be authors under assumed names - ok, maybe not - but maybe.

Jim has a few gems too. Next time you see him, get him to tell you about the First Card a.k.a. Debit card reader lady in his lab.
I've never discussed much by way of work on my main blog- though my alternative blog has seen a vein throbbing in my forehead a time or two.
Maybe we should create a virtual wall of shame? Things that just shouldn't go on in a normally-thinking society? (On the parts of both the customers and co-workers :D)Completely anonymous, of course. :D I could fill up several dozen pages by myself, I'm sure, particularly standing with one foot on either side of the fence separating staff and students.
