Once awhile back working at an advertising company when I noticed that a crucial production advertising database had not been backed up since it was created for almost a year!!! When I asked the IT manager and acting DBA why this was, his response was "Well...we never got around to it, we meant to though.." I just shook my head in incredulous disbelief, but the fact of matter is this kind of buffoonery is much more common than you might think out there in this industry today. There are far to many people in this business that have absolutely no business being in this business in the first place. They should be working in a flower shop IMHO. :-D
