So @Microsoft_RT started following me. That feels like a cue to talk about an important experience I had while working there.

Yammer became a Microsoft company, but we kept our offices in the same building as Twitter in downtown SF.

One day, we all got emails informing us there would be protests outside of our building. Probably aimed at twitter, but we should be aware.

I tweeted something about the protests and getting an email about it. It was fairly innocuous, so thought nothing of it.

Next day, I got pulled into aside by HR. HR in some *other* part of MS had informed them that I was tweeting "confidential communications".

I hadn't said what was in the email. But it was marked "confidential", which meant I wasn't even supposed to mention that it existed.
