Ouch! That's precisely[1] what I've been working with for a quarter-century now. And for the most part, my colleagues and I have been suffering from the exact same ills. It's not as if we are the ones coming up with all this shit and inflicting it on everyone.

(For a few fleeting moments -- maybe months, at most -- I've worked in one/two/three-person offices, or in actually Agile ways, or with eager and responsive ops people or competent and cooperative DBAs... Almost never all at once, though.)

[1]: Well, almost precisely. Mostly DW and ETL, really, but I'm guessing to most people it's all one and the same.
