Latest Casualty of Career-Suicide-by-Blog

Following in the footsteps of Washintonienne and Amy Norah Burch, Ellen Simonetti of Delta Airlines was fired for her off-work blog. (NY Times registration required, use "randommentality" for the user name and "password" for the password). Though she didn't name the airline for which she worked and used a pseudonymn, Delta managed to identify her blog when she approached them in an effort to get them to buy blog ads. When Delta checked out the site, they discovered she was posting mildly suggestive photos of herself in planes while in her Delta uniform. They fired her. She's threatening to sue, pointing out that: 1) The photos were hardly racy; and 2) Other Delta employees have photos of themselves in uniform posted in public places with no negative consequences. She's still blogging, so if you're interested you can follow her saga here.
