It’s been a bit slow in the US this week due to the American 4th of July holiday, but it’s been especially so for me since I work for a manufacturing company. Our plants typically shut down for the entire week allowing us to do any major infrastructure work that requires more down time that is typically available in our weekly maintenance windows.
This year we didn’t really have a lot on the schedule, so I’m using my “free” time to play catch up on all my technical reading. There are so many things on my “to read” list but one I’ve been really excited to read was Dr Greg Low’s (B | T) SQL Server Management Studio Tips & Tricks ebook. I must say I wasn’t disappointed. I’ve been working with SQL Server for 20 years now and didn’t really think I could learn that much, but Greg has some great nuggets that will help save valuable time when I’m elbows deep in T-SQL code.
If you haven’t read his ebook (which is completely free!) I highly recommend it. Especially if you spend any amount of time in SSMS (SQL Server Management Studio).
