Nico, the task seems to be lacking a bit of information. I can guess what 'employees' and 'departments' contains but 'gross_revenue' might need a little more explanation as to how that table works in relation to the other two tables. And, while it doesn't really pertain to the problem, do you really have this stuff spanned across three different RDBMS'?
