I guess I should count myself very fortunate.

The folks here ask me about storage requirements, and listen.

I get invited to meetings with our storage vendor and
get to tell them what I want.

At the meeting last week I wore my 'No RAID 5' hat.

Those of you at IOUG 99 in Denver may have seen it, I 
wore it every day there.  ;)
