Too many DBAs keep themselves occupied by fixing problems the end-user doesn't perceive as a problem.
Too many DBAs try to sell off a meaningless improvement as a 'solution' of the end-users problem, where the end-user doesn't seem any improvement.
Too many DBAs keep themselves busy with browsing to deluges of meaningless statistics
