We've got a new contractor in my group, and I"m pleasantly surprised - they're proactive, smart, and easy to get along with.
I'm very happy to have someone who I can describe a task to, and find it done in only slightly more time that I would take (due to my being already up to speed on the issue)
The only mild flaw is needing rather longer explanations than I prefer to give, and being a no-UNIX type.
