I'd be livid. On the rampage. Keen to wreak havoc and seek revenge, and to do it in the way I know best: BLOG. So I blog left, right and center about my narrow-minded rententive suit executives and their ridiculous company, probably creating quite a stir in the process and a good deal of negative marketing for the organisation. Scenario 2: Company picks up on employee's dissatisfactory online ramblings. Company uses the opportunity to respond, ON the employee's personal blog, showing their willingness to meet him in his space and a desire to work out their differences. Chances are employee will be impressed, problem will be solved and even if it isn't, spectators will perceive the company in a positive light. Bad news travels fast... This blog is testimony to that.

Chances are employee will be impressed, problem will be solved and even if it isn’t, spectators will perceive the company in a positive light.

Bad news travels fast…

This blog is testimony to that.
