I didn't make the same assumption you did, right. I based it on:
1) " Our regular table in the cafeteria is called the Doc Table where people
stop by to
chat us up. Of course, we do enjoy our private jokes about the rest of
the company. :-)"
2) "Been a bit frustrating till we found the ideal
candidate. Articulate, good language skills, in-depth knowledge in our
technologies, friendly nature. The interviewing team were exchanging
gratified smiles till we took the candidate for lunch."
3) "And the person was
not the least bit reluctant to express them either."
The third one, in particular, tells me that he did not initiate the
conversation about political views.
