He says "Well, it depends..." a lot.
Don't know about the "scripts for performance tuning," though. It's generally not daily work because hopefully things are tuned well for it to be exception-based - someone complains about the performance of a specific business process changing. Unless it is a development environment, where the DBA is a super-programmer who helps regular developers design and tune queries.
A lot of DBAs are focused on particular applications, and some are more into design work. It depends... on the site, on what is needed, on the person doing the work etc.
