        Nope just confirming to Mudskipper that that is MyUserName's hobby.

        As for being out of my depth I was swimming in the deep end when you were still wearing nappies. By the looks of it nothing has changed although your nappies are now jumbo size....

        Now run along back to mummy and let the big boys continue playing....

          Big boys? Nappies? Mummying? Are you making some weird kind of offer here?

            My money is on a leather trench coat, sunglasses and DrMartens. Also, I see a receding hairline and a pony tail. And I suspect you listen to death metal very loud on your headphones in work.

                How do I get through to the socially awkward ex contractor?
                Who hired him? If it was you then you are a poor judge of talent, this usually means you are talent less yourself. But wait you already have deemed him not good enough before letting him complete his project. You are impatient and you prejudge people. I would fire you or demote you where you can't do more damage, i.e. support monkey.
