about this story

After a tense meeting on designing a new database system, the development teams decided to go get some outdoor air and fresh squeezed orange juice. After returning they were recalling the early days of computing, and remembered that the nickname for Database Managers was toads, because they were strapped down to fixing and making normal the data all the time. Never able to get out and enjoy work variety like some other jobs. On the way out for the day they came upon a lonely orange that fell from the juice vendors cart. One said to the others isn't that an apeeling site.
