A few industry friends and I have a inside joke about one marketing person in our industry. He's changed jobs so often that no one can keep track, and every time we see him at shows he's too fucked up to remember who he's working for. I find this horrible, but rather funny at the same time.
The problem with this industry is that not everyone is a professional. I've seen twenty-one year olds making $200k a year; They don't give a shit about what people think about them at a party at 3AM. Then there are other people who are just begging to get their foot in the door...... At the very same time you have people who have so much money they don't give a rats ass about anything.
As this industry grows up, the people that are here to stay will remain. The people who are constantly fucked up and doing God knows what will be out of jobs.
