A Network World article details how Cisco VP Mike Quinn, a former CIA operations officer (back in the 1980s) is going after the person or people who leaked company memos to the magazine. Part of his memo is below, or you can read the whole story at Network World or at networking blogger Brad Reese’s site.

“I want you to remember that Cisco puts the groceries on your table every two weeks, not Brad Reese or other Slander Sheet Journalists. That you disrespected everyone else at Cisco. Now I know you do not have it in you to stand up and admit what you did, so I will now make you my “hobby.” Ask around you will find out that I like to work on my hobbies.”

What a delightful work environment.
