LOL I know exactley what you mean by treating them like their babies - there's a few like that in our place - not the most social of people, but highly skilled and ready to solve any problem to do with their baby! I think sometimes they tend to be one track minded though, and DBA's aren't getting involved in the development I could imagine (really imagine!).
I will definately look into it and research the job and see what I come up with.
Thanks again for your help,
