Wrong Nial, the last part of that line should have read "and replacing your name in the change records and source code with that of the manager who took credit for all of it anyway."

I'm fairly sure that last sentence is cut short, surely it should read  

The story of the "Vision" database and Mr Lewis' "worst of all worlds" application, make you wonder how people could make such awful mistakes, but you then find yourself poking about your own business applications, looking for similar design suspects and erasing your name from the change records and source code with that of a long departed and disliked colleague  

someone once said something about motes and planks, but no-one ever paid much attention when constructing IT departments.
