Cogito, Ergo Sumana for 2006 November 10 (entry 2)

# 10 Nov 2006, 05:09PM EST: Quote Of The Day: Right after the sysadmin solves a five-hour problem with an obscure SQL Server command (sp_updatestats):

System Administrator: I'm not sure. I'd have to do some research on that. I wish I could give you a real, scientific answer on that right now --

Me: We don't hire you for science. We hire you for Black Art.
