Who Is Reading What You Write SAMIT IT

Those are great points, Scott. In my case I already know the boss reads my blog, but I completely understand the need to think about the audience (as in really step back and think about who might read the content). And in some cases, your boss may not want you sharing as much detail as you have in a post so as to not give too much away about the company's infrastructure.
This is one of my favorite SAM IT videos.

That too. Great that the boss does read it, but also important to remember that he is there when writing it
I often get people asking if I'm thinking about who is reading it, and you can bet that I know that my boss, coworkers and clients are always reading.

Good points. Hopefully we all do this to some degree

I'm pretty sure we don't all
I've read so many things where people outright claim that they refuse to do their jobs or are intentionally screwing their company that I'm pretty sure that they are banking 100% that their boss would never read the thread. I often invite people to have their owners or CEOs read threads that people disagree with me on and if their CEO agrees, that I'd digress. In all these years, I've never once been taken up on a management review. -

I've even offered free consulting, that I'd come in and talk to management just because I was passionate about getting good advice out there.
Also, no takers.

Yep - folks are probably not paid to blog at work.

It's all about the passion. People can see that.

This is the kind of thing I did in the last 12 months on purpose, in all the places where I knew my "boss" (partner with more stock) would read it.
Then I would be like "Hey you see that guy online who just
shitcrapped all over our company".edit: I've exceeded my forum limit today for swearing. We're wearwolves not swearwolves..
