Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: When one can call oneself expert
By the way, this is a valid and true point and my rant is not in reaction to
it...although I would add that you might find yourself realizing "they"
don't know much of anything other than a little something about 401Ks and
mutual funds that might be of benefit to a retarded widow.
A guy at Wells Fargo knew if that from 11am to 5pm officially counted for a full days work according to the HR handbook and I enjoyed doing all or most of his work for 10 months.
And when they notice you are an expert "they," on average, will strive to have you politically assassinated...especially during a recession, gangsters. Look on the bright side, however, those deep-seeded morals and business ethics are just over that next artificial economic boom.
To quote the famous philosopher, Nike, "Just do it."
By the way, do you think I am pretty? Sometimes, I don't feel pretty.

Gosh, I hope its not too late to write my comments,
Juan, basically, sometimes you study and prepare many years so you can = write (somewhere next to your name) that you are an expert, but you = know.. when you become an expert you'll realize that is unnecessary = writing it for the others to notice.. they already knew it..=20
Someone said this:
"The true test of character is not how much we know how to do, but how = we behave when we don't know what to do".

I find that my best answer is, "I don't know, yet, but I will." I don't have the answer at my fingertips but I do know where in the documentation to look for them (and which mail list to ask if the documentation doesn't have the answer).
I would guess that being seen as an Oracle expert consists of having made all the big mistakes somewhere else and not repeating them on this job.
BTW - I just found out that if you have a Java app querrying your
database and you have lazy Java programmers then you'd better use
US7ASCII as your character set.
