When running a DROP MATERIALIZED VIEW the session hangs  Due to the JI contention.

1.   Killed the running job.    Check DBMS_JOBS_RUNNING view here.

2.  Take the refresh job offline and removed the job.

3.  Finally dropped the MView BR_SEED.ZIP_US which worked , we do not see the job or the Mview any more.
