i know how that is. Coworkers(2 of them) were working on a client/server program and had just finished the server part. They needed another program and it's license to finish the client. That wouldn't have been so bad except they needed it pronto, one of them was about to leave for another job in two weeks. So the boss orders it and it arrives seven days later. But he decides to install it and try to code the client, with no knowledge of the language or even how the server worked. It was three days later when he finally told my coworkers it had arrived. Needless to say the client didn't get finished before the one left. Eventually it was finished but why did the boss try to do that on his own?
