It is worth reading every detail of a blog host's contract. I blog as a hobby to upload photos and to share useful links to what I have learned while surfing the Net. However, employers are becoming increasingly concerned about what might link to their sites, in case of litigation and privacy issues. This, considering the current climate of Net ambiguity is wise. Blogger has started making thumbnails of some of my photos and adding copyright notices to them, so I think that Wordpress is now a better choice as a blogging platform, in my case. However, there are more serious situations that could develop, as I found when I read this blog: The Muqata: Israeli Court Limits Blogs Freedom of Speech Making a case for a Wordpress blog in the workplace could take time, Swissalarm. Why not start your own personal blog and work on it until it takes on the shape that you think your employer would appreciate. Then, faced with a "fait accompli" you will own your own work and can offer to allow them to use it for a fee?
