Re: If I was his supervisor

Yes, well, the problem is few workplaces are perfect - as you well know.

This is the same company (now defunct) that hired an Oracle SQL guru to rewrite T-SQL stored procs. Was there 6 months. Fucked off. We loaded his "code" up and discovered that he'd done **** all for 6 months. Cue my having to crash-learn Oracle SQL to get it working for the client.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

At a previous employer, there was a contractor who was the only resource that could work with SCO-Unix. They couldn't sack him, and he repeated declined suggestions that he become an employee.
