Ok, I can discount the last reason as OOP seems to be *SO BIG* with him (for he dealt
w/ hairy spaghetti code in another language which I have to maintain now & then, thus
can sympathize). Not caring for the user who would be pulling down a major
portion of unused code, however, makes me to start a job search anew (it has been only
about two months on the current job).
Lax, or lack of, security policies is another reason for a new job, but that is
