A mechanical engineer, who learned Fox while solving production floor tracking for a factory where he worked. Not really a programmer, but got into it quite far. Was the top Fox guy in Zero until I came aboard ("we need someone who knows more than I").
Fat and with large appetite. Bossy, though not at all times, only when he wanted to assert his authority. He somehow expected me to act like a subservient, which never crossed my mind. Once he even threatened me with sending me home, unless I come in on a saturday. I came and wasn't given anything to do until he came out of a meeting - which ended around noon, and even then he had nothing for me to do. It was just a show of power.
He took a second mortgage on their house to finance Zero, and then when it tanked he got into deep shit, financially and phychically. He eventually became an IT guy in some sort of a sanatorium, where he was also sort of a patient - as I heard from Leanne.
We didn't part on very good terms, because I refused to work for free for more than three days after demise of Zero. It ended up with Leanne sending a check for me, and then we went of and completed her enrollment season.
„Take care out there“ - the tagline after each of his pep talks.
