At one dev position I had, the DBA wrote stored procedures for everything I could possibly want to do with the database, and that was the only way I interacted with it period. I wrote a small wrapper around these stored procedures and the records they returned, and used it exclusively.

It was a much more pleasant experience than having no stored procedures and a full blown ORM, which IMO inevitably leads to sillyness like doing inner joins at the UI level.

What ORM was this that made you do inner joins in the UI layer?

This sounds a lot like what Stephen Feuerstein and Tom Kyte advocate for Oracle environments.
