We just lost our 3 summer interns and now I had to take over one of the projects from one of them. The code was a bit messy, but holy crap did they get a LOT done in 3 weeks. Just finished fixing it up in 2 weeks, but if I still had him, he would have done all the fixes in less than 4 days. He was twice as fast as anyone here.

Sounds like its time to make him an offer he can't refuse

Out of curiosity, how did you "lose" them? Was it a 3 week stint from the getgo?
