Hmm... Grooming DBAs. Well, I'm game. I suggest starting with a soft sponge and some warm soapy water. If they are self-starters, they will figure out what you are trying to tell them. If not, perhaps a more hands-on method would be better for you. Once you have finished with the sponge and warm soapy water, the next step is to comb or brush their hair. And, depending on how well groomed you want them, you might want to do a manicure or pedicure as well. Finally, you can discuss various options for garments, and then, upon final inspection, they should be ready for presentations. I can't imagine that this would require more than a part time effort, but then, I don't know how desperate your situation is. Best of luck, though. Bambi. -----Original Message----- From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of VIVEK_SHARMA Sent: Monday, October 10, 2005 11:22 AM To: Oracle-L Subject: Grooming DBAs ?
