misAdventures of Workmonkey 3.0

Damn the Man. That is so ridiculous. I have never heard anything like this before. Tell Linda I you know longer work there and you can say what you want. Who does she think she is?

that is the most pathetic thing i've ever heard, but it fits your description of ho's running the company perfectly. that is the epitome of ho's running a company. i'm sure you're going to get some funny responses here, but my suggestion is to - no matter what you decide - let them spend a couple grand on lawyers. they don't have an inhouse legal team so they'll pay $350/hr to explain the situation to an attorney. or more than likely, an attornette. by the time the attornette sends you a warning letter, they'll have spent a few thousand bucks on it...drag it out, let 'em throw money at it, then do what you will.

more importantly, why weren't you drunk that night. that's bullshit. if you say you're drunk, you should be drunk.

Yeah, they coulda kept you employed an extra month with the money they're gonna spend on the attornette...interesting.

If you take that post down, the creative soul will have lost.

You are writing a blog. A blog is a personal web log, a diary that reflects your opinions, experiences, thoughts and rants. It is your right to comment on your life, even if you are drunk, even if the words reflect poorly on someone else, even if you use politically incorrect terms. It is your property. It is copyrighted. It belongs to you. You are not stating it is fact. You are stating it is your perceptions of life. If people choose to read it, that's up to them. You are not actively distributing that old post to the masses with the intent of slandering your old employer. When that post is read in context, it's obvious what your intent was: a vent, an expression of frustration, a recounting of your perception of your layoff.

If you are sued for slander, they will need to apply those same rules to any columnist who calls George Bush an idiot or incompetent, who says Saddam Hussein is evil or claims the Lakers are overrated.

The fact that the management at your old company are threatened by your bloggings from nearly two years ago shows that that company is indeed ill-run and are focusing their energy and resources on trivial and silly pursuits that will yield no returns.

Uptight, thin-lipped, humor-drained, moronic drones still run Corporate America.

Get a real life, people, and focus your attention on something that might make your company money, since that's what it's all about for you.

According to a law site, "In order to prove defamation, you have to be able to prove that what was said or written about you was false."

..and regarding the right to express your opinion, "..so long as your statement of opinion is just an opinion, not containing specific facts that can be proved untrue."

So I think as long as you don't say something like, "the bosses at m-tree-i-berks are 3-foot tall prostitutes with moustaches and regularly turn tricks at 3rd and Market", I think you're fine.

They can't touch you Marky...nobody touches my Marky...

Age, What if you call them "mullet wearing donkeys" ?

OK, so I will take the other side from all your peeps.

Mark, you are complaining about the fact they did not come to you out of respect for the years you gave them. Actually, they employed you instead of one of the other hundred java programmers looking for a job then, 5 years.
And what do they see online? That they ran the company into the ground possibly because they were women. I will not even go into the hoe part. Come on, don't cry in your stein or feel disrespected because of their response. Take it like a man.

But, legally you have nothing to worry about. There are plenty of cases to prove this. Otherwise bloggers would be in the news all the time instead of Kaaza users.

(so you should come to Italy for Thanksgiving!)

haha shit. i think kat is right actually. you fucker. you worked like 3 hours a day for them and got 30% raises every 6 months. you're the hoe!

If Monkey is the hoe, that means that Manual 3 or MCI3 Works or whatever is the pimp. Your ass got pimped. I love you kenta

If you take it down, i already copied it. and will post it on the net so people can enjoy it...

Biaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttttttchhhhhhhhes

Come on, Hector. Let's be respectable here. They are not biatches. They are good solid respectable hoes.

to update: I haven't replied to the email from the company and they haven't sent another one. It will probably slip between the cracks until a couple months from now, at which time I'll get a comment on this blog from someone I used to work with that came across it. Will they be angry? Think I am foolish? Ungrateful? Regardless, the people have spoken, and they vote for the blog to stay up on this site. Until further notice, that will be the case.

oh cool, this information is really useful and definately is comment worthy! hehe. I’ll see if I can try to use some of this information for my own blog. Thanks!
