Well, I just had one.

Wednesday I duplicated a replicated database setup on
a new server and new version of Oracle, and left the 
to snapshot database ( just materialized views ) running
in parallel for a couple days in case something we didn't
find in testing reared it's ugly head.

Today one of my tasks is to drop the snapshots on
the old database.

I started out by first dropping the jobs that run the
refresh groups.

About halfway through I realized I was on the new,
production database.

D'oh! Serious pucker time.

At least is was just the jobs: It was simple to re-run
the scripts to recreate the refresh groups.
