Jeez as someone who's done a lot of contracting/consulting work I can hear this guy in a LOT of prior clients.
You know, the ones that would get F-U pricing or fired shortly after starting work and more often than not end up in court over me not getting paid.
They don't present a sane, rational, normal, competent, functional business aura so much as a whiny petulant little child that wants it all nooooow, and doesn't get that hiring someone means you get some of their time, not 80 hour weeks until your "just debugging" is done.
Also it's never just debugging, because if it was a developer who COULD do it building it, then it's a developer who is good enough to debug it too. If they can't debug it, then they almost certainly don't have the skills to actually do the project in the first place but I digress.
