Always Act Professional

 

This morning readers would have seen the post “Daft Behaviour – On a Train” which went under a couple of edits from the original post.

The main edit was to tone the language down back to a more professional level are an deeply charged and emotive original post on the matter at hand.

In light of this I would like to raise a couple of points:

• This blog is a conversation blog and runs commentary on Auckland and issues abroad. That means opinions and ideas are presented here. Yes facts and “truths” are also stated in the blog but, they are backed up by best available research and facts available and will be mentioned so accordingly (including referencing). It also means I can edit a previously written post if the circumstances change to the original post. However, a note is always mentioned that I have undertaken an edit in a post.
• Emotions should never get in the way of professionalism – which there arguably is with blogs and blogs linked back to businesses. Today readers would have seen a more human and emotive response to an issue that should have not happened (endangering lives on the rail network). There is time for emotion and time for professionalism and emotion got the better of me at first in that post.

 

We are all human here and yep it is the old case of think before rattling off especially in the social medial realms. One notes all this and will be more cautious when an emotive issue comes back up again
