One More Thing

(Favorite saying of Uncle from Jackie Chan Adventures, a cartoon that my kids watch)

It is niiicceee to be the overpaid DBA. I'm one! And certified, too!

One More Thing

Companies care about nothing but money. Government cares about data retention. Who do you think wins? Records must be kept. Too expensive to keep them in files, database perfect job! Programs come and go, but data stays around at least for government required retention period.

One More Thing

Do not badmouth my profffeeeessssiiiiooonnnn!

(I'm really getting into this Uncle thing...)
