This is just plain silly if you ask me. Sure, Paul seems to be a little weak 
in the "think positive" department, but resorting to this kind of tactic 
because you disagree with his views is not only unprofessional, but 
immature. I really don't know if you care about the unprofessional part, 
since I really have no idea whether you are in fact a professional of any 
kind, as you chose to hide behind a pseudonym and a free email account. 
But, based on the immaturity you have just displayed by basically playing 
"tattle tattle", I seriously doubt that you are. Paul posts as himself with 
no attempt to conceal his real identity. Did it ever occur to you that 
perhaps he has nothing to hide from his employer? It's pretty damn easy to 
sit behind a curtain of anonymity and take cheap shots, but it also gives 
you zero credibility.

You first.
