Well, that guy was a real prima donna. He had so many conflicts the boss finally told him he'd have to cool it. He quit instead.

Went to a Java developer talk once, guy had many years in it. Said he found he could not do pair programming. Said when it's experienced with less experienced it was just a teaching-learning pairing, and he told his clients that's a waste of time.
Two experienced guys pairing, though, he has found doesn't help much if at all. Some experienced programmers have their styles and that's that. In one rarity, thank God, I heard of one who was on a team and kept changing another programmer's code to his own style..
Heh, my new hire did that to my code. I quit. That wasn't the reason though, or so I told them.
Thanks,
