How ungrateful of them.
Delete the articles, create an anonymous ID and post them again. You shall not be responsible for that, because you don't know who posted it, and they will learn their lesson.

OK, if that's the way they treat their people, I'll never buy anything from them.

Why would your employer even know that you are a member here?

Well mine does because I used CP articles on my CV as evidence of my technical writing ability and knowledge ... I guess this is quite common.

Deleted articles will always be available through web caches and the like anyway.
Unless it's a clear cut case of you posting stuff you shouldn't have done, I think a name-and-shame for the employer so none of us here make the mistake of dealing with them is in order. If they were happy for you to have articles up while you worked there, spreading their name, and then suddenly want them down when you leave, that's bad practice and such a company deserves to lose custom.

If it could be called a smile. Looks like I'm trying to pass a chilli coated pineapple.
If I passed that face on the street I couldn't help but punch it. Any customer sees the photo and they'll demand I leave and not touch anything technology related.

Wear a loud (even musical if necessary) tie to distract them.

If only I kept the God awful tie I had from the early/mid nineties.
Worked for a major bank in a team of programmers doing the rewrite of their branch and loans products, at the time ties were a requirement for all males. Was out with a female team mate one lunch when we saw these extremely ugly ties. Bought enough for each member of the team, male and female and introduced Ugly Tie Friday.
The tie had to be worn during working hours every Friday, in the office, at lunch, in meetings with management or external people. Anyone who forgot or took it off had to buy morning or afternoon tea for the entire team. If we all remembered we put in $5.00 each and ate like kings.
They were terrible, I'm extremely colour blind and spent the 80's wearing what passed for fashion back then and even I could see how bad the ties were.

hehe... reminds me of one place I worked back in the late 90's that did a similar thing... so one Friday, there was someone there who was wearing the most hideous tie ever, so I complimented him on his entry for bad tie Friday, only to discover he wasn't part of it... whoops!!

No. A reference to a post I made yesterday. Got a job sub-contracting to a company that gets mostly home users with some companies. Need to get a photo id made up. Sent them a photo and they need one of me smiling elephanting sunshines. I don't smile and the picture I had taken today (just looked at it again) looks like a sunshine you wouldn't let prune your weeds.

At Northrop we had to wear security badges all the time, which included a picture, and colored stripes to indicate clearance levels and special access clearances. We worked in cubicles, and if a doorway had a colored stripe that didn't match any on your badge, it was a violation to enter that cubicle. But I digress...
Security was supposed to be very tight, with the black projects we were designing there, but one young fellow on my team was extremely distressed by the poor quality of the picture on his badge. So he did what any decent engineer would do - prized the lamination off the badge, replaced his picture with one of the Pope, and resealed the laminate. He wore it for as long as I worked there, and no one ever noticed.
If you don't care for your picture - or the company doesn't - just crop the family picture that came with your wallet, and send in the picture of smiling Dad, sans wifey and kids.

I've only ever had one photo id card I liked. I was working in Melbourne at the time and the admin dude put a headshot of a merino sheep on it. Farking brilliant. Sh*t myself laughing. I wore that ID with pride.

The last place I worked, I made a paper copy of my ID badge and added Dilbert as my photo, fixed up things in the badge holder so that it still opened doors etc. Fortunately my colleagues appreciated the brashness and the bosses appreciated the point. Great place to work.

So, I'm trying to pay an airline booking for next years big trip via internet banking. First hurdle, current transaction limit is 10k and the tickets are $90 over that, so contact bank, verify myself and ask to have limit upped by 1k. Oh, the next step is 25k. Nothing in between? Nope. OK, up it to 25k, I'll do my transfer and get it decreased again.
Go to do transaction after limit increased. Oh, now I need an online code for two factor authentication. Fair enough, the bank is taking security seriously. Ahhhh, the magic code gets sent to my mobile phone. Trouble is I live rural and there is no cellphone coverage. 
Looks like I'm driving in to town to the bank to get it done over the counter.

Lower north. I can draw a line on the road where coverage ends. It's all these damned hills.
Still, no coverage has it's advantages. The kids don't run up big bills  and know how to use a landline (how quaint!). Plus no one ever asks me to be on call
