I know you are disappointed, but be happy you have a
job. I was laid off a year ago and the job situation here in the TC's area
is not improving. I'll trade places with you any day.

One advantage of database architect is that he is less dependent on a specific
database. I am some kind of system architect/analyst and in my previous job I worked
with Oracle products as well as with some Open source ones. Now my new company is
working only with M$ SQL Server and I don't have
Lisa - You can always answer questions on this list to keep your hand in. I
wouldn't sweat it too much. I agree with you that the harder skills like
Oracle show up better on a resume. But frankly you can still put Oracle on
your resume for a LNG time and be perfectly truthful. And if they want

you just HATE change. You were getting all nice and comfy in your current

has happened to me a few times, and I have learned to "step into their shoes" to
try and better understand why. Why me!!!?!? Not that I ever agreed

Go check one of the on-line salary surveys. Used to be that Oracle DBA was
head of the pack. Now it's data architect and web designer. The only
reason that it seems like a soft skill to you is because you're so good
at it that it's second nature. Leave a regular L'User alone to do their
own

Lisa,
I'm
sorry for selfish reasons. I liked having someone else on a
Peoplesoft/Oracle/AIX environment out there. As far as the new position, just
change your job title to Data Architect (what does that do to your tag
lines?)

Lisa,
You are correct in your needing a vent or whining as you so
eloquently put it. Corporate policy can and has ruined a great career if
you are not prepared for the unforseen changes that the bean counters
produce.

Lisa,
Oracle DBA's make good designers as they know the ins and outs of what first
makes a healty database. And that is good data thats easy to query and
stored properly. I know DBAs appreciate having ERD's and complete schema
creation scripts. The fact that you have DBA skills means you won't

Maybe I wasn't clear. It's not me and my husband they are separating. They are
separating a husband and wife that both work in a different office than me. My
husband works for the same company too but he is a bean counter in a completely
separate dept.

Lisa,
Do you like the job? Do you think it has a future?
Will it give you time with your husband and new baby? If you answer yes to
3, than it's a good job. Don't worry about your skill sets, if you are
flexable that will count for alot.

You owe it to yourself to spend a few hours per day mulling over the DW
stuff at www.ralphkimball.com. I still learn something every week, and it is
not DB specific. BTW, data architect is not that bad, some would even call
it a promotion. When you travel the world going to customer's sites
