  No it isn't. Snitches get stitches is as true in the boardroom as it is on the streets. Y'all just haven't seen the wrath of a psychopathic type with something to lose scorned.

You'd qualify as, what's the phrase? "Disney adults." Doesn't mean the whistleblowing wasn't worth doing. Give 'em hell Barnett.
