    He is trying for some effect. He has built this reputation as the tough, mean, college professor type, and he sticks to it.

    This is not the...

    Here's one that is taking a while:

    [Snip beginning of statement]

    and (RT_TRIP_COMMENTS.comment_type <> 'EX' or RT_TRIP_COMMENTS.comment_type is null)

    The <> here is probably blowing up an index seek. Need...

    I wonder if this is the trigger I noticed this morning. He's usually tactless, but this morning it's like he's trying to be mean, instead of...

    Interestingly enough, over at SQLTeam Joe replied to someone's post with a request for DDL. No insults, no arrogance, just a standard request for table definitions, etc and the...

    -- ... keep going on

    FROM

    #temp_table AS tt

    JOIN

    LOCATION_TABLE as...

    Update:

    I'm told that what's happening here is that we do full backups each night. The following morning, the log files are 'deleted' and allowed to fill through the day...
