Yet another reason to hate Oracle software, not that we needed another reason.

I didn't know Oracle had engineers. I thought it was just lawyers and business guys. Live to learn I guess.

Almost took a job early in my career that would have led to being an oracle DBA. Have managed to continue not working with Oracle at all the rest.

I may be oracle proof. Maybe I should give these hospitals a ring.

after engineers conducting maintenance work mistakenly deleted critical storage connected to a key database

Five days and fixed on Monday.

It being Oracle, I assume they didn't work over the weekend despite it affecting hospitals.

It’s a shambles at Oracle these days. They are but a shadow of what they were in the 90’. Back then I had respect for them but not so much now.
