Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Pondering Question of the Day-RESPECT
Rocky,
I'm not sure whether this is bribery so much as it is extortion. Sort of DBAFather-ish ; )
I use the more suble "You owe me a xyx" when the grateful user/developer is expressing their gratitude for saving their hiney.

Try this:
"It sure would be a shame if all that work you did today were to somehow
disappear. It would certainly be nice if somebody brought me a <fill in your
bribe of choice>."
This works pretty well.
