Wrote Blog, Got Fired.

Posted on July 21, 2006 in Blogging

Interesting one this. An English secretary, Catherine, whose surname remains private and blogs under the guise of ‘Petite Anglaise’ is taking a test case to French court under French Labour Law after allegedly getting the sack over the writings of her anonymous blog detailing her life in Paris. Anonymous in every regard bar the use of her photo on the blog, which the company now feel identifies her, identifies who she works for and has lead to her discharge under gross misconduct.

Read on at her own blog, or check the Telegraph article from earlier in the week.
