In this case the company I worked for wasn’t happy, but dude was adept at moving around to avoid responsibility / not be there when the chickens came home to roost.

But other people had complained / concerns so in this case there were already issues, even if tentative.

The phone incident was more of an “ah ha” moment for the company.

As far as a developer goes I think in some instances it takes a long time to really gauge how someone is doing, more so if they are dishonest.

Yeah think we all want to be in situations where we tell our employers “it’s going to take X time” and “hit some technical hurdles will take longer” and they believe is, and I think many employers want that too…but that has risks as far as those who will abuse that trust.
