Work Anguish Continues

Well, last night my friend and coworker basically had it out with our supervisor about Idiot Boy. Yesterday was just non-stop stupid questions about basic things that he should already know...like weeks ago. Don't know if it was a lack of sleep or brain cells. So needless to say, the patience of the other members of the team is basically down to zero. We are all ready to snap at him at any given moment. One of us has headphones on just to drown him out. It's not a pleasant atmosphere at all. And there is nothing my supervisor can really do since there is a hiring freeze. Unfortunately, it will probably take the death of someone in order for him to be let go and it should not have to come down to that.
