See the efforts of your hard work and creative thinking
Database Administrator (DBA):
As a DBA you will receive a constant stream of requests to get better performance from the systems you are maintaining. Performance Tuning is one of the most complex tasks in IT, yet when you can say that with a novel index or by using a window function in a query that you can reduce execution time by a substantial amount, you get an amazing sense of fulfillment as you see your hard work and creative thinking in action.

The good and the bad
Database Administrator (DBA):
Pros: flexibility of my employer. Friendly relaxed atmosphere and environment. Ability to take time off as and when I want.
Start and finish at the times I want. Regular breaks. Random gifts from time to time from my employer.
Cons: When other staff are off I have to go out in the field and cover their work.
