Pls let it die - RE: Oracle DBA opening in Englewood, CO

Sorry. I couldn't let this one pass.

I am not a headhunter. I am a DBA working for GWL and we do have a position open for an Oracle DBA (and yes, headhunters can be a pain, but they can also be helpful if handled correctly).

I ignored the posting from Waleed which said the position was filled (even though it hadn't been) since it was time to let this one die (which it hasn't). This "Subject" had spawned some other discussions (some interesting) of the duties of a DBA before it degenerated to its current level.

I do, however, agree that it is time to let this particular subject die and go on with other more important things.

Thanks for the useful (and humorous) information.
