I'm hoping the word comes soon and that it's 2pm as well. We only have next Tuesday off and the other DBA asked for Monday off first, so I'm only getting a 2 day weekend. At least I'll get a ton of work done next Monday since a lot of people will have taken a vacation day.

"is khtan past me yet ?!"
Not yet. Have been quite busy lately. Just started a new project and need to travel quite a bit.

Look, there is no way I can compete with Khtan's posting rate!
And about the custom titles, I have given up long ago, it's just not going to happen.

contrary to popular belief, I don't work for you Brett.

People usually get custom titles when they inspire one of us (often me). If you don't have one, I'm sorry, it's not that you're not appreciated, it's just that we haven't come up with anything funny.

Lighten up and get inspired then.
PS. Brett has a title, so I don't know what you are talking about for most of the post.

I think Brett was gently hinting that he'd like to get more pompous title (instead of that not just a number).

Or am I wrong again?

You know, "Not just a number" is a pretty good title.
And if I'm not mistaken, in english it has a double-meaning too.
Not that I don't think Brett would mind being "Just a number" from time to time.

i think that merkin was reffering to people in general with that comment and not to brett.

Go with the flow & have fun! Else fight the flow

Just when you thought it is not going to happen . . . .
