Ugh I might have made a mistake though I am not sure I did.
We have a public system that we can make things private. I was asked to make something public in part. And put up a redacted thing. So I thought I did that.
But last night at 7 I got an e-mail stating that the press had reported something that was supposed to be secret.
The good news... within 10 minutes the information was pulled down period.
The bad news... it got out there and could be serious.
More frustratingly, it appeared that what I did was correct. I actually called a friend and she confirmed that what I did looked correct. I am not sure if somehow the got meta data from the redacted documents.
I can't really tell if I should report it... I feel like it will turn out to be an error on my part that I didn't see.
Honestly though I feel bad about this information getting out, I really don't care.
I am just tired and unsupported and I have 10 more years of this job.. and I am so tired of it. I sometimes wonder if I it would be better if I could get fired, though I know that will never happen.
