The thing that got me started is that my wife is on the web team. They have a *HUGE* on line catalog that they are moving from one application to .NET. The guy (the .NET programmer) from India is leaving for vacation in October and they have to have it done before he leaves. To me this is a recipe for disaster. I would wait until he returns.
The problem is.... He gets 5 weeks vacation!!!!!!!! The only time I got two full weeks in a row was in the Marines!
