Carly Fiorina and Mark Jen got fired!

I didn't realize that Carly Fiorina is so much hated by her employees at HP until I read the postings on SlashDot. There are many CEOs turning around their shambled companies by laying off thousands of people. They are applauded in the end for their achievement even though the means to success is evil. It's more or less like the Chinese cliche - one who succeeds is a king but one who fails is a thief.

So who the heck is Mark Jen? He is the guy fired by Google after he blogged about his work life. Here's the story at CNET. The moral here is do not piss off your boss in your blog. Mark is now on his own just like Carly but without a $8 million severance package.

We may both need to be careful about what we are posting. Otherwise, we might be the next one got fired.
