What does the work of a DBA entail? I also work in IT and this job is awesome. I work from home, choose my hours, m-f, chill boss and coworkers and easy to get time off. Most of the time it's slow so I can play games, watch shows etc.

Varies based on company needs. It's more about knowing how to do certain things and less about what things you're going to be expected to perform.

Generally speaking however all DBAs are going to do the following:

Manage backups
Manage access permissions
Identify / troubleshoot database problems
You're also the person that has to fix the data when someone else fucks it up

But there's like hundreds of other things you could be asked to do as a DBA.
