My blog friend Deb* left a comment on an entry I made yesterday and so I knew immediately that I had forgotten to lock it down! Sloppy.
I am not good at personal security. I don't even lock my front door a lot of times (I live in a very secure building). But, I do think that if I want to write openly about my job finding efforts (and maybe even, in the future, about my life on the job) prudence says, lock it down.
So I have a filter. If you have asked, you have been put in the filter group and can see everything. If not, and I remember to lock it, the nits and grits (and comments about the looks of interviewers) are hidden from view. I hope. And hidden from Google. And hidden from random folks who stumble on my journal.
And, sadly, hidden from Deb* who cannot be added to the filter because she doesn't have a Live Journal account. But, in this case I am ever so grateful to her for helping me figure out that I'd left the door open when I sure didn't mean to!
If you do have a Live Journal account and want to be included in the filter, just leave me a comment. My security procedures are lame but I should learn to stick to them!
