Hmm, sounds familiar. Wonder who does that... Companies buy a set number of
hours per month (like 6 or 12). Usually we do various other bits and pieces of
project and support work in addition
to just backing up a lone DBA.
Being the only DBA in an organization is difficult for more reasons than just
time off. Most people learn by collaboration, and bounce ideas off each other.
With no exchange, you can often find
yourself with nobody to provide a sanity check, especially in critical
situations.
