Re: OT - Getting fired for database oops

I have a friend who was a sysadmin years ago and got stuck with DBA duties,
but didn't know that the database needed to be down for a cold backup.  I
think it was when they couldn't recover their database when they needed to
that my friend was fired....

A colleague and I were just discussing DBA's getting fired for screwing
something up/failing to do something (Not for being generally poor
employees like showing up late, etc).  Neither of us had heard any
stories of either scenario.  I know we sometimes have slightly off topic
discussions on the list, so I was wondering if anyone would share any
stories.
