It began as a sounding board for Toronto Sun employees, past and present, who were concerned, and for good reason, about the direction Quebecor was taking the flagship tabloid. The blog quickly expanded to the entire Toronto Sun Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05371905107394425335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005385846479781113.post-88789950798290769112009-12-07T17:28:14.420-05:002009-12-07T17:28:14.420-05:00I continue to wonder why the anonymous author of t...I continue to wonder why the anonymous author of this blog chooses to criticize the anonymous people who feed him the information he asks for. Yeah, I know who TSF is, but most people don't. He doesn't use his real name. Yet he loves to back up the people who criticize anonymous contributors, and criticize them himself.<br /><br />Cheerleader or detractor, booster or slammer, the truth isAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005385846479781113.post-68742990275295969312009-12-07T12:23:24.195-05:002009-12-07T12:23:24.195-05:00Look on the bright side...

Just one more example of how the company's 'leaders' screw up every major project. The PC database connected to the Macs is another beauty. Did they ever fix that?

Why are you posting anonymously if you so are so delighted to be working there? PKP would be delighted to hear some positive feedback from employees for a change.
