You've had some bad experiences with QA people. The people I've worked with are methodical and work like the terminator to find bugs. One guy was so good he could even write queries against QA to show me where the data was inserting / updating improperly. A good QA person is worth their weight in gold. In my experience, it's hard to have a dev as a good tester. I'm ok at it but not as good as a pro QA person. Good devs look for shortcuts and efficiencies, which is the opposite mentality for good testing.
