I'm always appalled at how technical or creative people get fucked over re deadlines.
Sorry to hear they're taking the piss.

I get that he's getting shit from the client, but he doens't seem to realise that its like re-writting an entire book whilst making sure it doens't contradict the origional book in any place.
When the origional book took 3 months.

Options here are either
Say it can't be done, or offshore it. There will be teams of Indian lads who will work 24/7 for the experience and a couple of hundred quid.

You just test/proof it.
If it's wrong, you don't pay them.

I ended up saying "I'll see what I can do, can't promise anything", and i'll work on it 'till its done 'cus I'm too eager to please.
I'm like 80%+ there and no one else can even help 'cus I'm the only one who knows the code/layouts, and I'm the only guy who can write in the languages it uses (even though I ain't touched the languages a year ago).

The client is a pretty big deal, to do with nuclear energy, so I wouldn't outsource it anyway 'cus there is a hidden area full of stuff that should never get out.
