That's if you can afford the oracle's consultation fees

Well, the only way to know for sure is to ask the oracle.*

If it's of any consolation, it's even worse the other direction.
If you're used to Oracle and have to work on SQL Server, it's like working with the cousin from the country side

Now don't you go talkin' ill 'bout dat there SQL Server!
And wot's wrong with ma cousin Betty Jo? We two gettin' married next summer!

The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

Nothing offensive here, not even a pun.

Do they know who stole it?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

I made the same pun - I'm starting to worry :P
Basically the next one to steal it would be me, I freaking love it.

To be honest, I am not a big fan of Marzipan. Actually I avoid it.
But come to Germany and visit the city of Lübeck. You just cannot avoid marzipan here.
cheers,

Good. I'll take note - I'm pretty near to southern German border by the way, and someday I'll take a proper vacation in Germany.

Also most of the north european sweets are rich in gingerbread and cinnamon, two other addictions of mine.

Except the selves all made of Lubeck marzipan[^]...
(I was there, but found marzipan far too sweet for me)
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

A pleasure to get you addicted

Glad you found your Marzipan again but I can't think who stole it.

I HATE marzipan and so does my German wife.

There has been lots of discussion about CVs, covering letters, interview questions.
But what happens if it all goes well, how do you get out of where you currently are?
How do you go about resigning?
What should a resignation letter contain, is it just a piece of paper for HR to file or does it serve any actual purpose?
Is "Dear boss, I'm off x weeks from today, love Chris*" enough or should you pad a little?
*I'd use your own name, but you get the idea.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.
