OH you can't scare me I'm sticking with the Union.
There once was a DBA
who never was afraid
of crashes and locks in the glass box.
Being overworked and underpaid.
She woke up from her sleep
whenever she was beeped
And when review time came around
she always stood her ground
(and said)...

I say we all go to Steve's house and play a game of "Survivor" to see who
the most powerfull DBA in the world is. I'm willing to bet certain list
opts are the first voted off. - E

Steve,
LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWD have mercy!
If the "DBA union" develops in the same unenlightened, dysfunctional
context (large amounts of pointless/unproductive tribalistic
squabbling & bickering over trivial b.s., etc.) as have events on
hazyDBA, I'm sure it will be a huge success (sarcasm intended).
Even in the non-profit sector, people are expected to understand the
dynamics of managing the "organizational culture" of a group. There
has been a lot of research done on "computer mediated communication",
"communities of practice", the inherent capacity of people to become
"self-learning/self-aware" outside the realms of narrow minded, self-
serving corporate/bureaucratic "expertise" and so forth. As far as I
can tell, hazyDBA doesn't seem to be organized around any coherent
conciousness paradigm (business model) of that sort. As such, any
attempt to push the "organizational" boundries of hazyDBA's culture
any further doesn't seem very promising.

btw, the direct link doesn't work. You have to start at the main
page: http://www.lazydba.com, and click on the "discuss" link undre
the following heading (on the left just under the green banner):
"Followup to last
week's forum
This is a followup
to last weeks forum.
Discuss"
Apparently "last week's forum" refers to the next heading down which
is titled:
"Is Henry awful
or not?
This section is to
discuss the recent
events on the list. Is
Henry Awful or
not?"
