Wing was sure picking up new things quickly. He was dedicated and he was a fast programmer, although being very fast doesn't always mean also being very thorough. A few days into his summer job I went out for a coffee break, and immediately upon my return - barely after setting foot into the office door - I was greeted by a very distraught looking Wing.
"We have a problem. Big problem."

The Second Day
The first day for the new summer student that we hired was fairly mundane: a welcome to the other staff, a walk through the building, handing over of keys and things like that. But the second day was another story - the second day laid the ground for what was to become a memorable summer.
Wing was from China, and had moved to Canada four years prior in order to take classes at a Canadian university. On day number two, Wing showed up to work at 8:52 a.m. By no later than 8:54 a.m. he was logged into his computer and ready to work, looking at my expectantly and awaiting his marching orders. I sighed, since I hadn't even had a good run at my coffee yet.
