Did you ever have one of those days?

Like when you're moving a table that contains a list of all valid OS =
user accounts in order to maintain (disable) Oracle accounts, only you =
fat fingered the SQLLoader module causing all employees to have their =
respective DB accounts locked and expired?  Not only that, but that the =
program you've written to do this from the OS explicitly sets the SID to =
production because otherwise it won't know what SID to connect to when =
this job is normally run via cron?  And I've suddenly remembered that =
while there's an "UNLOCK" clause for ALTER USER, there's no UNEXPIRE.

<heavy sigh>  The Response Center's gonna love me...  At least I had =
enough sense to use groups to segregate user's read-only Oracle accounts =
from the management and app accounts.

Yes, it is Beer Day.
