My humble suggestions

1. CBO doesn't work ... (well it failed 3 years ago when I compiled a Forms
3.0 form against 803 database, so it is STILL true).

2. Writing reusable code is not good, it is waste of time.

3. Exception handling ... Oracle is pretty good are reporting them ...

4. We need to get a larger box with 32 CPUs and 16TB of disk and 32GB of
RAM, that will make our application run faster

5. Application code is already optimal since I wrote it in 7.2, no need to
revisit the code for our upgrade to 9i, it will optimize itself.

6. You DBA guys are overly overrated ...

7. Once Table with 32 columns, 28 are indexed in 17 different indexes on the
table and this (highly transactional inserts, updates) table is used by
at-least 10 users at any given time ... the developer thinks "this design is
perfect"

Whew ... I feel better now ...
