So, have you finished the Oracle install and tuning I asked you to do an hour ago?
Boss, Oracle is a beast that some people spend their entire careers learning. It's going to take me a little longer than an hour to get ours up to speed since I've never touched it before today
What the fuck do I pay you for? I mean, God, I can install Excel in 15 minutes!
...
You know I was kidding right?
I bet I could kick your ass before you could finish installing Excel
