Performance Review Puzzle: Can You Decode the Real Message in This Appraisal?

A.B.W
Appraisal letter: with encryption...

Dear Manager (HR),

Vicky, my assistant programmer, can always be found hard at work in his cubicle. Vicky works independently, without wasting company time talking to colleagues. Vicky never thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and he always finishes given assignments on time. Often Vicky takes extended measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee breaks. Vicky is a dedicated individual who has absolutely no vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Vicky can be classified as a high-caliber employee, the type which cannot be dispensed with. Consequently, I duly recommend that Vicky be promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be sent away as soon as possible.

NB: That stupid idiot was reading over my shoulder when I wrote the report sent to you earlier today. Kindly read only the odd lines (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13) for my true assessment of him.
