He is missing a few...

 

Production Issue DBA: Anytime a developer asks you a question or for help you say you are busy with a production issue.

 

RTFM DBA: Any time a developer asks you a question you tell them to RTFM.

 

I don't share any info DBA: any time a developer asks you a question you refuse to answer since you don't want them to learn anything you know.

 

Everybody else sucks DBA: This is the type of DBA who constantly complains about developers, managers, etc... and says everyone else sucks.
