Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> PLEASE READ Re: The weekly quote "obligatory" Why you are afraid
Carl-Jan,
Given your recent post about the backup debacle, and the things I learned from it, and the fact that it read better than a suspense novel (I was on the edge of my seat), I'm surprised at your negative reaction to this idea. I implemented a similar idea at a former large employer, a "Tips, Tricks and Traps" kind of thing. Very useful. The "weekly" part just gives us a soft deadline to get it done.
My suggestion: let's all try it for four weeks with a positive attitude. Maybe we'll see fewer subject lines that say
"Subject: URGENT: HELP ME NOW OR I'LL LOSE MY JOB, PLEEEEEZE!!!"
because people will learn ahead of time.
I have to admit I like this list much better than the LazyDBA list. It's just better. I'm surprised at the reaction. Let's give it a short try.
I say let Juan start it out and tell how it will work, and go. Your backup story could count as the first real good trap to avoid.
Thanks,
Mike
