To the bosses and potential employers who googled me or happened to stumble upon this blog…

When I first started blogging, I specifically chose Friendster blogs so that only my chosen friends can see my entries.

A few months later, Marc gave me my new site (www.thatgirlwasme.com).

A month later, a boss googled me and found my site. She told another boss…who then googled me and found my site as well.

And just a while ago…I was in a meeting with my boss, the boss of my boss, the boss of the boss of my boss, and the company CEO. I was just sitting there, quietly laughing to myself because the Singaporean consultant kept pronouncing ‘access’ as ASSESS (“we will provide internet assess…”), when another consultant brought up blogging.

Alas, my blogsite was brought up and revealed to the big bosses! What’s more, the Singaporean said potential employers read the blogs of their applicants as well!

So, if you are a boss or a potential employer….

1. I would like to clear that this blog does not reflect, in any way, my professional performance. I am very serious about my work. In fact,the reason I’m blogging is to get consumer insight. I am trying to get into what our target consumers are doing. Well…actually…I started blogging because I was always dateless and had no one to talk to on weekends. And because they said if I blogged well enough, I could turn pro and earn enough to resign and never work again……

2.  I would also like to clear that this does not reflect my total personality. I know that my entries are a bit risque…okay, some are outright vulgar…but this is not the suma total of my personality. I’m really a very nice, conservative young lady.
