TECHREPUBLIC COMMUNITY NETNOTE NEWSLETTER for November 1, 2005
TR’S HOT TOPIC: THE HOSTILE WORKPLACE
This past week, TechRepublic’s online discourse was overflowing with
tales of the hostile workplace, be it from a verbally abusive boss, an
uncomfortably non-secular brand of office politics, a blatant gender
gap, or the complications arising from the boss’s interoffice affair.
Within this larger topic of the hostile workplace, a fear of
surveillance also emerged, with anxiety about being asked to spy on
others, being spied upon yourself, or the government spying on
everyone–it all added up to some serious privacy concerns.
