Hello everyone, this is my rant.
I work in a start-up as an Android developer and we were looking for our first iOS developer.
After two months searching, some guy was finally hired last week.
My boss already told me he didn't have my programming level, but we needed him because he had experience as community manager and good Photoshop skills, and right now we need a profile like that in our company.
Today the new guy asked me what are setters and getters.
How fucked is my company? Is there hope for us?

    Look at it as a training opportunity, and a learning opportunity. As you train him, I guarantee you, you will learn new things too.

    Well he was hired as a SEO and design guy... Teach him, it's an opportunity for you to train your mentor skills and also learn something about iOS development.

    Ok, I've just told him to better use a switch instead of a if-then, and he asked me what that is... I don't mind being his mentor, but maybe this is too much. Should I warn my boss of his alarmingly low level?
