Hello Team, Just to clear all doubt. The task presented in this lecture clearly highlight the use of two tables which are "Employees table" and "Dept_manager table" only. But during the lecture you captured the "Dept_emp table". I didn't get any clear reason why it was suddenly introduced into the query. So i decided to re-write my query as shown below neglecting the "dept_manager table" totally. And to see if i will come up with the same output giving in the lecture. To my surprise it did. My question. Is my query still adoptable? And how come it responded so well when i used just "employees table" and "Dept_emp tables" only. Disregarding the "dept_manager table" through out my query. Great Job 365 Team!!! SELECT A.* FROM (SELECT e.emp_no AS employee_Id, MIN(de.dept_no) AS department_Code, (SELECT de.emp_no FROM dept_emp de WHERE emp_no = 110022) AS manager_Id FROM employees e JOIN dept_emp de ON e.emp_no = de.emp_no WHERE e.emp_no <= 10020 GROUP BY e.emp_no ORDER BY e.emp_no) AS A UNION SELECT B.* FROM (SELECT e.emp_no AS Employee_Id, MIN(de.dept_no) AS Department_Code, (SELECT de.emp_no FROM dept_emp de WHERE emp_no = 110039) AS Manager_Id FROM employees e JOIN dept_emp de ON e.emp_no = de.emp_no WHERE e.emp_no > 10020 GROUP BY e.emp_no ORDER BY e.emp_no LIMIT 20) AS B;
