I Think My Blog Has Been Discovered By A Co-Worker
(No Ratings Yet)
Loading ...In keeping this website and writing in my blog I have one rule that I strictly adhere to… I do not under any circumstances write about my job or where I work, but only for this post I will make an exception. I don’t know if I am right about this, but I kinda have a sneaky suspicion that my blog has been found by a person that I work with. It’s not anything that really surprises me, as I knew it was bound to happen at one point or another. It’s just kinda weird knowing that someone out there who thought they knew me is out there reading what I’m writing and really getting to know me for who I really am…. you know, the person outside of the job. I don’t really care about it to be honest. This is not my first website and it definitely isn’t the first time I got “discovered” on the internet. I mean…. I have videos on You-Tube, pictures all over dozens of websites that I won’t mention in this post, literally thousands of comments I’ve posted on other blogs that link back to my website…. so it was only a matter of time before someone I knew from work found my spot here.
But like I said, I’m not sure that this person really knows about my website. It was just a suspicion I got after he made a comment to another co-worker I was having a conversation with. The comment he made was something like “stop talking, get his blog address and leave him a comment”… or something along that line. I’m thinking he probably was just trying to be funny, but what adds to my suspicion is that this person knows I spend a lot of time online. Maybe he googled me, who knows, who cares? I certainly don’t. But you know how it is… when one person finds out, the whole goddamn planet will know it and if word spreads about my website at work, then a lot of people are going to be surprised I think, or maybe not. I don’t think I have any secrets that I hide. In the past few years I’ve gotten to be pretty honest about answering straight forward questions with a straight forward answer. If a person is not afraid to ask me about something then I am usually not afraid to answer them honestly as I have somewhat discovered, however it is not always true, that those who do ask the questions are the ones you can trust the most. So I don’t think I’ve written anything in this blog that would surprise any of my co-workers all that much…… but it’s still kinda weird knowing he or they are out there “reading” me. Whatever!

All my coworkers know about my blog… in fact, when I call in sick, the first thing they do is check the blog to see what i did… it sucks… but such is life… i typically dont talk specifics about work, just in general stuff…

Kelly that is one of the reasons I don’t want anyone from work knowing about my blog….. cuz they are some nosy people already as it is and I know if I call out sick they will be coming here trying to find out if I really was sick or out somewhere having fun…… which reminds me, I am getting due for a “call out sick go have some fun” day.

I recall the creepy feeling I got when my blog got to be more public than I thought it would. Since then I’ve blogged less about my kids (for their safety) and more about general things. I wanted to be public because sometimes I pour my heart out and need support but there are others out there I wish didn’t read certain things.

I agree. Kinda creepy feeling. I don’t tell my co-workers either. I don’t know why exactly. I prefer to keep my personal life a bit to myself when it comes to work. But on my blog? It’s all out there! bahahahah

Hi Jules and Amy. You guys just don’t know I tend to sometimes open my mouth… or well type with my fingers and say wayyyyyy too much about myself that you know is ok for people to know who lives like hundreds of miles away from me but not really things that I care for someone I’m going to see face to face at work or out in public to know haha.
