So what makes you think I'm a dba? I was an independent relational

Not according to this you hadn't; I started my career in IT in August 1986

I was independent with Beck Computer Systems most of the time with
them - it was a running joke, as they were a start-up and had
customers doing odd things. Hard to explain on a resume, harder to
explain to banks, especially where I was working two jobs. But easy
to explain to the IRS. Go figure. Then the body shops and gummint
subsubs and the onesey-twosey things I don't even bother to mention.
But you know all about that, right?

From 1984 on I had my own PDP-11. It stopped earning its keep when I
started concentrating on Oracle, when it became obvious to me Oracle
was superior, from a business perspective, around 1989. For a long
time after I decided to concentrate on Oracle, most of my work was
heterogenous. My company has been in the yellow pages since 1984.
Sometimes other companies use it, sometimes they hire me directly,
sometimes they sub me from someone else. I could care less as long as
I get paid, though I'd rather be fulltime/perm these days, with the US
health benefit issues and all. If companies _want_ to pay me more
than they have to, that's fine by me. Oddly enough, I seem to last
longer as a temp, no one tries to make me a PHB.

I've never gotten any business from the yellow pages, just phonespam
and people trying to find someone to fix their stupid PC. But it
makes me legitimate as far as banks are concerned. Businesses just
don't look for serious consulting in the yellow pages. I have gotten
business from cdos. wtf.
