I just finished designing another board, a waveform generator, and I
asked one of my guys, my most-recent hire actually, to look it over
before we gerber it. He said "I really don't have my head into what I
was doing, so I'll take a day or so and give it a full check assuming
that it was designed by an idiot."
What should I have replied to a statement like that?
I'd have a friendly chat with the guy to see where he's really coming from. Using the word "idiot" in front of my boss, especially if it refers to the boss, would never come into my mind. Not even in a joking way.
Yesterday I received the same request except that it's the 2nd round, Gerber checks. So I made sure to ask what the client wanted me to check and, roughly, how much effort to put into it. After all they have to pay me. Found a few things, listed them along with suggestions, he replied that he'll incorporate them, done. That's what I'd also expect from an employee.
BTW I'll probably be at that client a month from now. Bay Area, other end from you (Hayward) but maybe we can have a brewsky then. Depends a bit on what we'll find and how much late night oil we'll have to burn.
