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?

Time to rethink your hiring strategy ?

Yeah, I wish I could find more guys like this one.

Your giving him the credit to have a thorough look is
brilliant. But how much of the project is involved?
Is the Serial / USB / Ethernet interface the optimal choice ?
Is the knobs & switches / PC visual / capacitive buttons & LCD user interface the optimal soulution ?
You're not after the right footprint and track/track
coupling of the layout ? The mounting holes are at the right
position ?
You're rather after is the board likely to pass the tests,
minimum self interference, does it meet the timing. Whatever
he finds, there is always something to learn.
