Newly hired programmer pilot fish at this small insurance company can't help noticing the behavior of his programmer co-worker. Not only does the co-worker keep odd hours; he often doesn't show up for work at all. Result: Co-worker has a project that looks like it will take twice as long as it should to complete. Why is he allowed to get away with this? baffled fish asks boss. "He's not," boss says. "I've told him that as soon as he's finished with the project he's working on, he's fired."
