And was he a gift?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Only if he is... present?

So I'm a DBA entrusted with securing the nations's data and some new guy downstairs has been sending increasingly offensive emails trying to cajole me into giving him crazy levels of access to sensitive data.
I have reported him to my superiors and I guess he'll be getting his marching orders later...
[EDIT] Just seen the bugger drive away in some crazy looking Mustang. Noisy as hell - must be wasting gas on a monumental basis!

Hahah - your comment made me think of Being John Malkovich - in the restaurant after John has entered the portal into himself. I swear I understood that scene perfectly once or twice.
Malkovich? Malkovich.
Malkovich Malkovich. Malkovich. :ouch:!

Of course it is. I am staying out of this fight in case the bullets start flying!
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

I now see his post below this one, that's him indeed !
But his last post is relatively mild, normally guns and bullets are mentioned and he uses more explicit language, well guess he's getting older and milder ...

Our department has our own physical database server, on which only our department has access.
Our department supervisor tried to run a Qlikview app that uses stored procedures, which may or may not use functions as well.
Only me and two other people have execute permissions on OUR server, and the department supervisor is not one of them.
So, I send an email to the DBA(sshole) downstairs and request that our AD group (which only includes the people in our office) be given execute permission on every database and stored proc/function.
His response: "Are you sure you want to do that?"
After another half-dozen exchanges:
Him: "Can you give me specifics? Which database stored proc/function are they trying to execute?"
Me: "Really? You want to do this one-at-a-f*ckin-time? Fine - I can play that." and I gave the db/func name, ending with "This is f*ckin absurd."
I'm sure I'm gonna get a call from HR, but these idiots are standing in the way of us doing our jobs.

I am that guy, except I don't care about ddl, read write, execute whatever. As long as you don't screw with anyone else's database. Or the server it self (with 1700 databases enterprise wide micro managing everyone would be impossible)
Edit, depending on the data that is contained in the database and what Audit has to say about it of coarse...
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

It Could Be The Technology
This took me back a few years to me when we were insuring my app would only ahve ability to run SQL via Stored Procs. I was setting them individually and quickly getting tired of it.
There are other roles but db_executor is not really defined automatically and I was puzzled so I found this:
db_executor role - SQLServerCentral[^]
I had to explain the role to a DBA also. Could it be your DBA is uninformed? Very possible.
Just thought this was interesting.
Good luck.
