RE: organizational culture / RE: TUSC and Kevin Loney

Yet more "tribal squabbling"? Or was this the "trivial b.s." part of the attack?

"My daddy is going to beat your daddy up"

Oh Jaysus Freaking Christ, what bullsh*t.

|| Steve,
||
|| LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWD have mercy!
||
|| If the "DBA union" develops in the same unenlightened, dysfunctional
|| context (large amounts of pointless/unproductive tribalistic
|| squabbling & bickering over trivial b.s., etc.) as have events on
|| hazyDBA, I'm sure it will be a huge success (sarcasm intended).
||
|| Even in the non-profit sector, people are expected to understand the
|| dynamics of managing the "organizational culture" of a group. There
|| has been a lot of research done on "computer mediated
|| communication",
|| "communities of practice", the inherent capacity of people to become
|| "self-learning/self-aware" outside the realms of narrow minded, self-
|| serving corporate/bureaucratic "expertise" and so forth. As far as I
|| can tell, hazyDBA doesn't seem to be organized around any coherent
|| conciousness paradigm (business model) of that sort. As such, any
|| attempt to push the "organizational" boundries of hazyDBA's culture
|| any further doesn't seem very promising.

|| This is a followup

||
|| Apparently "last week's forum" refers to the next heading down which
