The only possible problem I can see is if Gator was

Otherwise, it's just embarrassing -- anything that makes a company take the
time to say "what in the world is this?" brands someone as a potential
problem employee, even if the action taken really does no harm to the
company itself. I mean really, would YOU want to be sitting in your HR
office explaining why someone wrote a nasty letter to your company about
you?
My understanding was that it's the latter - but, god knows, that would
be enough for *me* to say "screw this, I don't have to invite this
kind of abuse".
Do bear in mind this was written by an upset crank. I don't
particularly want to imagine what they claimed he got up to...
