            Try not to scream at the CEO and frighten the entire IT department. And good luck. :)

                      Possibly - though maybe his CEO reads CP too (seems to be the other tech guy there after John).

                                        I suspect that where John's attitude towards these guys is concerned, something about apathy and a rodent's posterior comes to mind...

                                          I'm not sure that wouldn't be cause for celebration given the tales he's been telling. Sometimes sanity is more important than money. Not often. Just sometimes.
