Oracle comes to mind: > What commands are finger-trained in Oracle DBAs? Ha! Best laugh I've had all week. The finger training consists of "double click the mouse, navigate the GUI to find your table...". For command line, you have monstrosities such as "select * from ALL_ALL_TABLES" and "select * from TABS" - unless they've implemented some sort of shortcuts since the last time I used Oracle.
