Unless my memory is faulty, all the information on his W2 is on his pay stubs, just in small increments. Save the pay stubs all year, or transfer the information on those stubs to some sort of spreadsheet, and behold! all the information he needs and doesn't need to whine about not enough time.
I wish I'd had more time to find this out. I didn't get my W2s until early February
You had the time, Magic Herb, you just failed to use it.
