    <p>You know, if they had told me about this one little bit of
    SQL that we could have run as part of the deployment of this
    new feature on our production web sites at work, I would not
    be awake at 03:12 in the morning writing this.</p>

    <p>Oh, just so you know, I woke up at about 05:30 yesterday
    morning.  I tried to go to sleep at 01:45 this morning.  It
    didn't work.  At least I got good news on fixing the damn
    problem.  Too bad we didn't simply put this in production at
    21:30 like we wanted to.  There's several hours of my life I'm
    not getting back.</p>

    <p>Compensate us, preferably with a trip to visit the developers
    who didn't tell us about the magic button until many of us had
    lost sleep.  At the least, I'd like to hear them apologize in
    person.</p>

    <p><strong>Update:</strong>  It was the wrong magic button.
    But at least we solved the bloody problem.</p>

    <p>We have no process, and we must scream.</p>
