The only thing it had gojgn for it (and I must admit that's proven to be seriously major) was the ability to view the formatting codes. Umm, let's just agree to disagree about the UI for wordperfect for DOS, at least the non GUI version. Maintainability is another issue, but even so, they look nice. Well - I _do_ admit that the screens look nice. Just confirmed my suspicions, but it also clarified the right path and I think it's ok now (aside from the grief) because product started shipping yesterday!

We even had MEETINGS with an outside management consultant over this guy, how to get him to produce SOMETHING and what was going on. Oh yeah after his final deliverable he got the 'thank you for your service we'll contact you' e-mail. The features in use from these are really trivial, somewhat easily done with custom style sheets, and working around their quirks and limitations has generated a few hours of GRIEF FOR ME, whereas if I'd written it myself from scratch it would've taken LESS TIME and cost the customer less.ДЄnyway, VENT COMPLETE on *THAT*.

Well he did THAT on his own, through his own efforts.ДЄnd the worst part - most of the 'work' was 3rd party libraries, which SUCK. Lots of slack messages back/forth and him whining and complaining and 'thanks for taking work away from me' etc. Finally I just gave up on him completely and asked him to create a single screen I was having trouble cloning from his existing code.

during that time he apparently PANICKED and even started reverting my git commits. When he got those to me, I cloned them for the rest of the interface, and and the whole thing done in a few hours. I ended up taking over to the point I just asked him to make 3 UI screens.

He took 3 times longer than he should have to develop a FRACTION of what needed to be 'DONE' by 'certain time frame'. Yeah I had to deal with a 'UX' designer recently.
