Can anyone identify the mistakes made by my boss while attempting to install his own subpanel?

So, my boss thought he would tackle his own subpanel project. Any chance someone could take a look and see if he made any errors?
Perhaps Westinghouse had a point.
Let’s begin by making sure neutrals and grounds are separated here in PA
On a sub panel
I was so impressed by the way he routed the wires to the sub panel.
There’s a ground bar below that he just didn’t know what to do with, so he left it empty.
I missed it too, .
What in the world is happening with that main lug?
Now you see it, as said 😂
😂 Haha
We could use more Halon, definitely.
I’ve heard that if you really pay attention ….
Haha, true
Hmm, I want it all!
Shall we begin with what’s correct?
I can’t believe how foolish he is.
When it comes to sub panels, remember to keep grounds and neutrals separate.
Obviously there are no breakers in that panel. Come on.
Wow, it looks fantastic! Time to switch it on.
His error was believing he was an electrician 🤣😂
I see neutrals and grounds grouped together in the same bus bar. That doesn’t seem right.
There are line wires in the lug with exposed ends.
Can you explain what that Daisy Bag contraption is all about?
I’m sure there’s much more I’m overlooking.
Hold on a sec…this man is your boss?? Are you in the electrical field?…because it’s pretty clear that he’s not!
You got it right about 😉
That’s spot on about .
Is not an electrician, he actually owns a warehouse. He recently installed a couple toilets so now he’s dabbling in plumbing, next week he’s going into tiling
Look out for double taps on breakers.
Consider starting with a POS panel.
440
Wait, was it actually on fire?
Let’s begin again.
Hey, is this item still up for grabs?
If only he had hired an electrician!
The mere fact that he touched it

Biggest mistake was allowing him to examine it, is he even still breathing
It’s easier to attempt to locate something that was done correctly.
Investing in a new panel would be beneficial.
The mistake was clearly him attempting to do it himself in the first place!😂

One of the mistakes made by your boss was hiring an individual who documents his errors with photos and shares them online.
Apart from the unfortunate fire incident, it’s not too bad. Haha
The charcoal finish is quite appealing. I think those are the latest smart panels.
So I guess he goes by the name Electrician.
The big boss.
He messed up by picking electrical work since he really has no clue what’s happening…
You should ask your journeyman about when his house last caught fire.. I’m willing to bet. It was probably less than five years ago
Avoid connecting the Neutral in a sub panel.
