Blogging Yourself Out of A Job

Blogging is a gray area.  You feel like you can say your true feelings, but only in a general sense.  Businesses encourage communication among workers to boost morale, but do not want anything posted that could possibly reflect negatively on the company.  It is hard to write "openly," if you are constantly worried that something you posted will later come back to haunt you, including possible termination.  My best advice is to keep two blogs: 1) a general, positive blog for the company you work for, and 2) a blog that is set to private that only allows readers that you invite to access your personal information.
