  • RE: Sharepoint Growth is Good

    Grumpy DBA (10/28/2009)

    But crappy cars do create opportunity for mechanics. Whether that's good or not is another story.

    [raises hand]

    Disagree, M'Lud

    Those cars will create a small blip in short...

  • RE: Sharepoint Growth is Good

    Ah, Sharepoint.

    Is it a content management system? Is it an enterprise social networking platform?

    ...I know quite a few people that...

  • RE: Ask SQLServerCentral

    Well, I'm going to nail my colours to the mast and state I reckon this is a sensible evolution.

    Although I can't be sure, I'd strongly suspect that most SSC members...

  • RE: Investing In Your Career

    Certainly, I take care to ensure my employability and commercial utility at least remain the same, if not increase. Sometimes that takes the form of formal training, sometimes not. However,...

  • RE: Same or Different?

    I must admit I still prefer different passwords for different systems. However, we do have a few things that make our lives easier.

    As others have mentioned, moonlighting needs to be okayed with your current employer or it can be a sackable offence. It would not be appropriate particularly...

  • RE: Test Drive

    The comments already made are indeed the logistical issues Steve mentioned in the article. However, in principle I think it's a great idea. How many times have we thought, "if...

  • RE: DBA: Mentor vs. Protector

    Silverfox (8/18/2009)


    I think that we have met different kinds of management over the years with all due respect
