He lacks some of the most basic programming skills. He won't do things

where he just saved a file or what he named it so you can't even search
for it). I don't mean to insult him, casually speaking, he sounds like
a smart guy, but his job performance doesn't at all reflect his
portfolio or his stories about programming in his spare time.
The problem here is that half of these attributes sound like someone who
should draw lighter duties than programming. And the other half sound like
.... me.
