@Kangaroojack1986 If it's anything like other small-town companies I've seen who "modernized" using local high school computer aficionados, the reason was that ALL the company data was in that software, and the boss didn't keep backups elsewhere, thinking the software would do it. Amazing how many people I've talked to who work with systems like that. And because the bosses aren't going to pay enough for a firm to overhaul, and aren't tech savvy enough to know what's possible, they think nothing like their software is available elsewhere. Sometimes the hack coder tells them this. These days, if I run into that I tell them to sue for fraud.

HR has to be nice to you UNLESS the company decides to "get new blood" and fires lays off the entire engineering dept just to hire new college grads. Because profits. Lookin at you, Dell.
