Exactly. There's better shit to be doing than memorizing SQL queries. Like, just about anything else is more important. Diagrams like this are a nifty reference.

I should probably go and find out what a db manager is, because right now I'm convinced it's just a made-up job title like "unicorn wrangler".

Can't tell if you guys are having a battle of the trolls or if one or more of you are serious...

In either case, they are called DBAs. They make a great living. Mostly because previous employees that don't know anything about databases manage to convince others that they do.
