Interesting article, it pointed out to me some areas where I need to do some work, before I can call myself a DBA...

Yes, I'm a novice at this, despite doing some basic DBA stuff for my employer (hardware stuff, installing SQL, Windows networking / security / Active Directory) there are things I don't know how to do (create a view, stored procedures) and some I can do if I keep Google handy (basic queries, backups)

Thanks!
