I think Walt beat Kramer's record on Seinfeld (remember the episode where Kramer was on strike at the bagel shop?)  

I like to contribute to the list where I can... You're welcome.

Have any DBA's ever been sued for malpractice?

I used to belong to a union. One day the union told us to go on strike, and we did.

22 years later, we're still on strike. I'm sure we'll be going back to work any day now. Then I can quit this temporary IT career I've been working at for 22 years now.

Unions suck, IMHO. Worst career move I ever made was joining a union.
