Where were you an HP at Dave ? -----Original Message----- Sent: Monday, March 25, 2002 11:34 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L
My last profession was health physics which is a branch of nuclear physics. Where I could locate to was very limited when compared to the locations I can go to being a DBA.

Now, perhaps it takes a bit more work, but there seems to be enough demand around for the time being..... Perhaps number 10 should be rather: 10. If you need a change of location, you can get one easier than with other jobs. RF Robert G.

So I can live where I choose. Oh really? How do you manage that? -----Original Message----- Sent: Monday, March 25, 2002 9:23 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hey, I got five scampers running around right now.... youngest is 9 and the oldest is *gasp* 16.... 10 Reasons I became a DBA 1. So I don't have to mow my own lawn 2. So I don't have to change my own oil. 3. So I don't have to move my own furniture. 4. So I can have 5 kids and a wife. 5. So I can afford two NICE cars (well, mostly nice until the kids get to them). 6. So I can eat out every day if I choose. 7. One word, big screen TV (ok, three words). 8. Because it's cool. 9. Because I like getting paged at 3 in the morning to save someone's butt and have them owe me BIG. 10. So I can live where I choose. RF Robert G.
