He cuts corners when he's in a hurry. There are functions that are redefined in subfolders and called from two different locations (have no idea why)... it's a mess.
Those are signs of very poor programming habits in my experience.

That's why I work on more than one thing. :D I have like 4 different web based projects I am working on. When I start to get burned out or ticked on one I switch to another and let it sit.

Then again I do take breaks for massive killing of other people in games like BF2. :D Nothing like virtually shooting a bunch of people online to get rid of frustrations. ;)

yes you are right, but I have seen him write clean code before when he takes his time.
