So, I went on-site for an all-night install with one of my clients, to help them upgrade their servers.  My specific responsibility/role was to move web applications & databases to the new server.  The network 'engineer', was supposedly supposed to research and verify that the other core software they wanted to run on these new servers was Windows Server 2008 compatible.

At about 5 in the morning, we realized that this 'engineer' had NOT done due diligence, and made many false assumptions regarding software compatibility.  I mean, Windows wouldn't release a new OS without first verifying that ALL software in the known universe is compatible, right?
