The IT guy underbid on a contracted job and wanted more money. It wasn't like he could just be given a raise or a bonus because he wasn't a regular employee.
Maybe the whole system of getting a bunch of bids and just going with the cheapest bid is fucking stupid in the first place. And the whole treating those who should be partners instead as adversaries where you each try to outmaneuver the other might get in the way of building a reliable system.
