Yes. Working on the same problem space for a long time can get boring, and a fresh face willing to take it on makes it worth the time investing in code reviews and mentoring to provide continuity for users. Professionally at least, I would happily pair program with an intern for 6 months nonstop to bump the bus number on all my responsibilities. [edit] Whats your geo? We're looking for interns...
