Blogs vs. Work : Work vs. Blog
Okay, so by now eveyone knows that one shouldn't really use work material in one's blog. But what about using one's blog material at work? This morning I was providing comments on a document and as part of my comments I needed/wanted to describe the living conditions in the sertão or the semi-arid desert-like zone of the Northeast. Rather than deliberate over my words, I lifted my description word for word from this post minus the last sentence describing the photos. Didn't even change a comma! Is that so bad? Should I have quoted myself? Now I'm thinking that my blog could be billable time!
Note to those at work: The rest of my comments were quite specific to the document in question. Have no worries!

Aiieee! So many people have been burned by blending their blog with their work. Thankfully, noone can sack me from my position when I blog about my work! Hehe!
Can you claim the blog hours on your expense account? ;-)
Handy!
Ah what a creative use of the Internet : -)
Don't give credit because then they can backtrack and find you out.
