Why don't organisms have complete fossil records?

Fossil records are incomplete because there are many random, destructive processes which can harm or destroy fossils. Think of all the violence of nature, earthquakes, floods, forest fires, landslides, volcanoes, etc. And fossils are not necessarily that durable. Many things can damage them. Some scavenger could chew on them. A large animal could step on them. It doesn't necessarily take an earthquake to damage a fossil. Fossils are just lying around, they are not protected or conserved, unless some paleontologist digs them up and puts them in a museum.
