Ok, the lead programmer from my company left for another job last week. Before he left, he was suppose to finish building our company site in CSS. I finished designing the mock ups on March 5, and today the new programmer showed me the one page he did. It was fucked up.
I've asked the old programmer on a daily basis on his progress and he assured me that he would finish it before he left. now I'm stuck with a shitty template. I'm not his manager so I don't think I should be asking.
Do you think he should have did what he promised or was it ok for him to dick around for 2 months. Should people be responsible for doing there work even if they decide to quit? Also is it the manager's fault for not making him do it?
I'm so pissed off, but I know I shouldn't be.

That was a jack move on his part. Also pretty sad that he took two months to deisgn a simple template.

It's up to the person I guess, but in my book thats fucked. Unless he hated the company and it was a final fuck you, but I'm not one for burning bridges.

this guy who is a really good programmer. The thing is he makes more than twice the money I did. and I work 10x harder.
The thing was he kept saying how easy it was to build that site, it was only 5 pages too.

personally i think if you say your going to do some thing you do it
as for the new programmer you should hit up his manager like WTFs up with this guy you think he would try and do as good of a job possible if hes the new guy and working on the companay site

it's sad people do that. it's very unprofessional. and we all know this is a small industry. i believe that goes around comes around.
probably he doesn't care, and that's where he'll end up eventually, a careless sadness island.

the new guys just started on Monday so he's just getting his head around it. He works hard because I've worked with him before.

the funny thing is he's going to work in a sweatshop too. So I'm kind of glad because he'll have to work 9 - 10 everyday. He's gone to hell!
