Top 5 Signs You Are Working with a Cowboy Software Consultant

This article sounds like its discussing a very specific person and not a class of people. I don't see much in the way of solutions other than 'fire the guy', so it sounds like someone needs to vent. We've all been there and either inherited or hired a bad developer. Do you need a hug?

No hugs, but much appreciated.<p>Definitely an entire class of people. Maybe since I am on the east coast&#x2F;NYC area there are more cowboys? When I worked in Colorado there seemed less. And when I worked one time (small sample size) there were zero cowboys.<p>Probably just the culture of the employer.
