Every time I see stuff about Postgress it sounds so much better than MySQL.
Every time I get a new job, the existing system is using MySQL.(Every time it causes problems of some sort of other - it's not a bad database, but has too many quirks like JavaScript that will end catching you out at some point).
Last time I got to build something new the time pressure was so great I had to use MySQL, because it was there, set up and working and I knew it. I wanted to use Postgres, but at the end of the day the extra time setting it up wouldn't really have been much benefit as it was a fairly standard Django app, and didn't need any of Postgres's extra features. (I quit that job shortly afterwards).
