EN FUEGO

The shadowy bloggers of Kent’s Imperative have been busy of late.

“The money quotes, in our opinion, for understanding the future of the disconnect between talent and management: “Heh,” I joked. “I bet the first time my boss finds out where I am is when he sees my photo on the front page of his own website.” and But the best punch line was that … he didn’t find out when it was on the front-page of his website – he found out when I posted that fact to my blog! “

Hey Tom ! Isn’t that what happened to you at NWC ???

UPDATE:

Yes, it did!

“How did Watman know I was conducting my secret negotiations?

My dean followed it obsessively on my blog after numerous professors told him they were fans of it and he became concerned I was growing beyond his control.

When I was confronted by charges of this conspiracy, I replied, “Yes, we were all in it together, me and my tens of thousands of readers.” Clearly, I would have made a terrible spy.”

Hat tip to the master of webmasters, Sean.

  1. Sean:

    Mark, you hit a nerve! 😉

  2. mark:

    LOL! I sympathize. I had a situation very much akin to Tom’s earlier in my career insofar as I too worked for an obsessive control freak and became locked into a battle to death/Texas cage match with the jackass and me shooting my mouth off in grand style.

    Have to give Tom the nod though for his comeback. Very nice.

  3. Sean:

    ‘master of webmasters’ – i like it 😉

    Hebraic ‘webmaster of webmasters’ is nice, too 😉
