> Programmers are procrastinators. Get in, get some coffee, check the mailbox, read the RSS feeds, read the news, check out latest articles on techie websites, browse through political discussions on the designated sections of the programming forums. Rinse and repeat to make sure nothing is missed. Go to lunch. Come back, stare at the IDE for a few minutes. Check the mailbox. Get some coffee. Before you know it, the day is over.
So you'd rather have some dinosaur sitting at a computer? Someone who doesn't care about programming, doesn't care about the latest or newest ways to do things? Doesn't care about improving themselves?
I must admit, I'm like this _sometimes_. But that's only because I'm using PHP :) If you have a problem with your developers doing this, you're doing something wrong.
You're fired.
