I wouldn't be where I am in my career today if not for @sqlpass.
To every single individual who was ever involved, top to bottom & sideways, my most sincere and heartfelt appreciation. You all showed me how to be better. I'm so very grateful.

Testing one, two, three .. an updated tSQLt in 2020! Now easy to install on 2017 and 2019. Check it out at tSQLt.org and let us know what you think. (with @lizbaron)
Happy #unittesting with #tsqlt on #sqlserver for the #sqlfamily
Stuck in a comparison of adopting Informatica vs Collibra for data catalog (and other things) - Any one in #SQLFamily open to sharing stories and opinions of either with me?

Heard this morning that we are without a speaker for tomorrow night's #IndyPASS meeting. Anyone game to speak?
Time for another "survey"!
Anyone out there using datarobot for basic AI / data work? Thoughts on it?
“I think the last time I used 2 cores for a live db system was 1996”
Someone actually took offense at my career experience and that comment. Sorry. It is what it is. #suckitup
Looking for info/opinions from my #SQLFamily about using Commvault for backups vs compressed native SQL backups to a filestore that is then backed up offsite. Tell me your stories.
Anyone out there using Druva for their #SQL backups and willing to share their experiences? #sqlfamily
By any wild chance does someone have access to a globe deli slicer (2750 to be exact) that can send me a shot of the power relay connections? Mine has a loose wire that I’m not sure which and where it connects to.
Up way early, showered and everything in the car to head up and kick off #sqlsatdc with the precons today!
Hired a #sqlserver DBA - Now looking for a couple of Data Architects! Come join my team at the Motley Fool or help spread the word!

1 gallon Apple cider + 750ml Ole Smokey Salty Caramel Whisky + 375 ml Fireball + 1L club soda = good time without knowing it. #BringAlcoholTheySaid
Quick pitstop for fuel and breakfast before arriving at @SQLLive360 in a few hours. Get to open up the day tomorrow with a couple of back to back sessions. One on docker and the other on custom audit scripts.
And wake up from tank to live site down and warroom being assembled right before dinner to get things resolved. Fun, not fun. #canthavenicethings
Q: what are you doing for your activity at the company meeting/retreat.
Me: spending the time in an isolation float tank.

Going to #SQLSatDC? Wanna learn all the horrible things SQL Server writes about you in its diary?
Come to my precon! Use promo code "votesql" for $50 off!

Finally got demos all working for my “Building Your First SQL Server Container Lab in Docker - What They Don’t Tell You” session at 3:15 in 6C (and live-streaming!) Now time to try to crash for a bit before another busy day at #PASSSummit
Thinking of meandering down to Lowell’s for breakfast. Anyone else heading that way or want to meet up? #sqlfamily #PASSSummit #PassSummit2019
