I've worked with some pretty rotten software, but management software is easily the most user unfriendly, so my vote goes to HPSM.

I discovered I had a career because of AS400. I worked for a 1-800 computer sales company that was failing and they lost access to their GUI POS and had to rely on direct access to the AS400 to do a sale. They handed me a huge binder and said what can you do?

I turned the process into a 20 step how to and it kept the business going for a while. The old ladies I worked with loved me for saving their jobs
