      When a user tries to switch the database using `use dbName;` syntax with multiple commands (single or multiline), the db is not switched correctly. 
      It considers semicolon part of the db name and switches to a wrong database name and as a result all the commands are run against wrong database.

      > use Enron_Email; db.enron_child.findOne()._id;
< switched to db Enron_Email; // Notice the trailing semicolon in db name

> use Enron_Email;
  db.enron_child.findOne()._id;
< already on db Enron_Email;

> use("Enron_Email"); db.enron_child.findOne()._id;
< ObjectId('52af48b5d55148fa0c19965e')

> use("Enron_Email");
  db.enron_child.findOne()._id;
< ObjectId('52af48b5d55148fa0c19965e')
