even my junk folder needs a job

Have you ever noticed that spam email tends to follow certain patterns? For a couple of weeks or months, everything in your junk folder has a celebrity’s name in the title or looks like a fake Us Weekly headline. Then for a couple of weeks or months it switches to being fake lottery winnings. For the last two or three weeks, all of my spam email has been about employment. It’s totally possible that the evil trolls who live in the internet and spy on us know that I write a blog about workplace and employment issues and are just using topics I might be interested in as a way to infect me with their viruses.
