7. Half-cup Speedster
A real web design speedster who works on multiple projects at the same time. He has the ability to work faster than others but because of the quantity of the projects that he takes on; he sacrifices the quality of his work. Although a web design developer, his codes are quite messy because he feels that checking codes can take too long. He does not religiously follow best web design practices and never makes use of object-oriented programming. But here's what's surprising, despite his messy-looking code, the product works just as intended. The problem is, since his codes look like a minefield and is downright indecipherable; nobody can fix it other than him. Come to think of it, you can't fix what you can't understand or read.
