I don't think Dr. Tayeb Kamali would like the comments posted by one of his employees and will be able to easily trace the insolent teacher of English who made them. The dates and times of the postings under the "Billy Bee" section will make it easy to track who was using the HCT computers at those times to post to Dave's ESL cafe.
This is the disrespectful and libelous tone to which Dr. Tayeb Kamali is referred by "Billy Bee" on Dave's ESL Cafe.

Tubby the Great One There are no management problems at HCT. The only problems are the teachers themselves.
Tubby the Kamel is Our Great Leader, also known as The Wise One. He alone is capable to sort out all those bolshy teachers, who will find themselves banished to teaching on Diploma Foundations forever, at some remote corner of the HCT empire.
Tubby won't actually fire them, because hiring new ones will involve more expense. Or then again, maybe he will? Who can tell what is in the mind of Our Great Leader (Praise Be Upon Him)

I think this is a repeat of the 'Quantity versus Quality' argument that probably gets aired at the Higher Education Ministry every year or so.
There is a story that every year a huge kerfuffle takes place regarding the poor quality of the graduates. There is then a move to cap the number of students, effectively keeping out the dross and focusing on properly educating those bright ones. Good move, eh?!
However, come August, some of the influential Sheikhs start rattling their sabres, because their dim boss-eyed offspring can't get a place to study, and what are we gonna do with poor little Mahra (and Hamda, and Sara, etc...)? So all the numbskulls get put onto Foundations Courses to teach them how to tell the time and do colouring-in on the computers.
If they bothered to educate their offspring properly in the first place, from Primary level up, this would not take place. But nobody listens. And so the charade continues. Pitiful, eh?!

You will be looking for someone (probably from Ireland or Northern Ireland) who has been working for you for 7 or eight years probably in Abu Dhabi (you have the IP address below). He probably has an MA from Edinburgh and a PGCE in Further Education. He is probably married and his wife may be from Kazaksthan and working as a teacher. He has at least two children and may have recently moved to Dubai.
He has been spreading his hatred now for many years attacking anyone he could. This time unfortunately he has chosen you as a target and ridiculed the good name of HCT.
Please help us to find him.
