Perhaps they're used to SQLServer DBA's, where, on one mailing list, it was proclaimed:  

"The DBA's job is backup and recovery ...... anything else is icing on the cake"  

Perhaps SQL Server DBA's do just that; they've no time for anything else. And perhaps we should convince management of that gospel, and spend our days on the beach waiting for the few recoveries we really do.

Yea Dave, I have to write code to prove to the duhvelopers that I indeed can do it. That's what I was told. I also clean the bathrooms here on occasion.

Thanks for the laugh !

Now Jared,

        Any devlopers reading this list will not be offended because 
        they are wise enough to know they (and we) do not know very much. 

        Any duhvelopers will not be offended because they do not 
        read this list because they know it all already. 

Dave
