Who controls the past now...

controls the future..

I've spent part of this morning reading about various bloggers who were fired for blogging in one relation to another about their job. This of course sent pangs of guilt down my spine for using terms such as "slak-jawed" to describe my co-workers. Then I remembered where I work and the pangs disappeared, but nonetheless I got to reading about some of these individuals and one in particular caught my eye. It also made me wonder how the person responsible for tardblog has stayed gainfully employed.

Some lady, using that term loosely, was fired from an airline for posting pics of herself in her uniform on her blog. Reading this I thought, "how do you get fired for that, it doesn't sound too bad" thinking of a pic of a smiling face in a work outfit. Oh how wrong I was. The woman in question went on to fight for her rights to bloggy, and fail in that fight. Now she's fighting for my rights as a blogger, words cannot describe how happy I am about this. So I was curious of these pics, thinking "something is amiss... or awry.. or.. um, wrong". Lo and behold there was a link to her blog, which maintains in an effort to fight the power. There they were, the damning pics in question.... OH YOU STUPID MUTHA FUCKA! Making it sound like it was just lil' ol me in my uniform, why oh why whould you fire me??? Ok, in one pic, the said uniform is unbuttoned or unzipped or however the fuck a flight attendates outfit goes together to the navel as you lean over a seat showing your bra and boobs! I gotta quote for you miss..."THE MILK'S GONE BAD!" In other pics she's stretched out on the seats in a lame attempt to look sexy with the legs and all... ugh! Chances are you're former employer wouldn't have been upset about a pic of you in uniform, but lame sexy poses taken inside an actual plane are probably not what they were looking for by way of advertising. Pardon, unless the airline was "Dirty Whore Airways.. where we send your satisfaction into the stratosphere!". But this person has the nerve to be upset at her "wrongful dismissal". So that's who's fighting for my employee rights... sad really.
