In my last post I called someone I work with some very unfair things. My basic complaint -- that this girl doesn't really communicate with me in a way I would like or consider appropriate -- remains, but by calling her names I am no better.
I am very sorry for the way I reacted.
This is not the first time I've had blogger's diarrhea. On occasion, because I'm only human, I blog about a situation that is upsetting me and although I know they're just my feelings and opinions, I write stuff that others might take as fact or hold against the person or thing I wrote about.
This is something we are made to consider in journalism classes and it's something I wish I'd considered this morning when I wrote that post.
There is a mature way to stand up for yourself when you feel like you're being talked down to, and name calling isn't it.
I only hope others can learn from my mistakes.
