   it won't work I think, remove and add will only make the column as the last 
column in the schema , but I want to move the column to a certain place . 
Additionally it leaves the table in the risk of a partially updated schema if 
the job failed after delete and before add
   
   you can remove + add in a single transaction and then move in the other one, 
but still it has the problem of the partially updated schema
