Quite.

Last week I discovered a record in our "City" table called "A** HOLE" linked to a "CompanyLocation" record called "F*** YOU" and had a contact at that location named after some 1970's British speed-punk band, who was in charge of IBM mainframe products like "EAT SH**"

I have also come across contacts with names like "[TYPE CONTACT NAME HERE]" and "#Error" (That's the funny one. #Error is what you get when you're in MS Access and there's a data binding issue)

Working here is like living inside a Salvador Dali or MC Escher painting.
