Claudia experience, share & review

calm down girl! some attention whores have nothing better to do than attacking people here and there!!! dont bother okie.

*hugs* i guess i can truly say… i know how u feel. love u. calm down k.

I dont understand. What happened … Dont leave lah :(

I don’t know what exactly happened so the only information I have is what you typed out. Please allow me a short comment on this contentious issue of personal/work overlap.

I can understand your frustration but ask yourself this, are you really partial yourself? Are you really able to wear 2 hats at the same time? The 2 hats being the community manager of Yebber and yourself.

With fame comes recognition and with recognition comes responsibility. Thats what a lot of people fail to realise. And when they do, the burden of it all crushes them =)

All the best!

Hey gal, don’t be upset by such people. Cheer up, ok? :)

I’m not sure what happened, but I hope you are all right.

Honestly, in this day and age, it’s difficult to separate out your work persona and your personal persona, especially if you have a prominent blog.

Out of good will, you may mention something good about Yebber in one of your blog entries, and all of a sudden, folks equate you not as “Claudia” but as the “Yebber Community Manager”, and assume everything that you say is trying to promote or “sell” Yebber to your audience.

I feel the same sometimes, if you read my recent blog entry on the Unconference. There I was, trying to be objective in offering my thoughts about the event and mentioning Microsoft’s sponsorship, and automatically some folks think that I am slamming Microsoft just because I work for arch-rival IBM.

In my opinion, all you can really do in these situations is just try to continue to be objective, and constantly remind your audience that you are representing yourself in your blog, and not your company.

hey claudia… do cheer up…!

people will say whatever they can to achieve their purpose, whether it's fair/true/justified. so don't feel bad about it; it's not your fault.

it just sucks that you happened to say something that he could target. *hugs*
