I fucked up once and lost 2 hours of customer data. I was so lucky we were a small startup and had daily backups AND the backup was only 2 hours old. I would have been royally fucked. Never making that mistake again.

Always use a copy of prod on a staging server and run your queries there for testing.

It's incredibly depressing how common this is in the real world, but I can tell you from experience that this NEVER happens in Atlassian production systems.
