Considerations when looking for a tech video course:

Yes please. Also, can you turn some of my erotic novels about a young dashing database admin and this cute QA girl into audiobooks? It's full of juicy stuff.

"Bob stroked her hair and whispered: 'Do you want to test the integrity of my love column', to which she replyed: 'oh, this is such a hot feature, I want to feel your indexes glide through my fingers, fucking take me on your table, lick my keys! Fuck yes tell me you have a unique constraint for me, this inner join touches me in ways I've never been touched before, I will allow you to deploy! Fucking deploy deep inside me!'. Bob might not have been flawless, but his response times were just irresistable, his performance unmatched, and as he stared deep into her eyes a million little foreign keys exploded from the tip of his..."

Well, you get the idea. Do we have a deal?
