    Correct answer: Lay off everyone. The new project will be coded solely by AI. 💯 hired.

      Not hired at all, but feedback added to database for said AI project that will envelop all roles therein.

      I love this idea of the asshole getting transferred to a new project, removed from said project shortly after, only to be put back on the project after another short period.

      Haha! Take that, asshole!

    Trick question! IATA: IDGAF about your rules about who can work with who.

    That’s right! I said “who” not “whom”! I don’t care about your grammar rules either: like putting punctuation inside quotations. Or starting a sentence with a conjunction.

    Did I get the job?

      Honestly this is the most sane take. If the asshole can’t work with 2/3 of the team then they need to GTFO. I don’t have the time or mental bandwidth to deal with shit like that.

    The solution is asshole first, bore second, idiot last.

      In this scenario, you probably wouldn’t want the idiot to be the last to leave the old project. Leave the bore for last, to wrap it up. Also, introducing the bore last to the new project allows the whole team to learn from the idiot’s mistakes, for which the asshole is well aware of by that time.
