Holy headlines, Batman…guess who made the Washington Post this morning? (Use Bugmenot to bypass the registration.) An Atlanta blogger who goes by Karsh says he was fired from a sales position in January after he blogged on company time. He was not so contrite. The writer of BGB, or Black Gay Blogger, said his boss wanted him to apologize for the things he had said about his fellow employees. Since the other workers were not named, he did not think it was necessary, he said. "I feel like it's been said and done." The blogger renamed his supervisor "Skeletor" and "Wednesday Addams" in an entry about the confrontation. When the was told he would be demoted and had to dismantle his site, he quit, he said. does the Running Man Yeah…so like, if you Googled yer way here, Karshed is the post where the play-by-play is documented; most of the workplace entries are under–surprise, surprise–Jobs and Work. Now I gotta go and search these job listings. Filed under: News Comments:

Name's Karsh. 27. Country-born, city-raised, 
It just occurred to me that some of your future employers may have read that article too. HR directors may be googling "Karsh" right now.
Damn.

Wow, did I have a flashback when you talked about your boss Skeletor! Not only have I worked in a call center, but I also had a boss we'd nicknamed Skeletor. Man, she was a real bitch! You are eloquent, sassy, and college-educated. Young, gifted, and black-as Donny Hathaway put it best. The demon twins have released you from a hell of passive-aggressive sociopathy. Seize your destiny and don't look back-fuck 'em!
