This Angers Me: Challenging and oppressive SME situation

I am really angered by the overall response to this posting.
On the basis of an ANONYMOUS poster's OBVIOUSLY one-sided, self-serving,
and self-flattering account, there has been a stampede to condemn the
faceless SME without benefit of hearing her side of the story. All of
you would be livid if someone did that to you, but apparently it's okay
if you do it to someone else.
Six whacks of the printer's rule to the lot of you.
