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

Lotus Notes. I called it Bogus Notes. I do not miss it.

My first programming job out of college was in Lotus Notes. I spent most of my time trying to trick it into doing what I wanted, it was a constant cat-and-mouse game. Kinda fun if it wasn’t so miserable. Had to gtfo after a couple years.

My previous job finally got off of lotus notes in 2019.

My first text job was at a fortune 500 that used Lotus Notes. I think they transitioned off in 2014 or 2015.

What a weird software. They had some whole processes that happened in Notes that were like mini applications and databases.

You gotta respect those early adopters, the trendsetters, the pioneers.

I left a job when the previous notes admin left and they tried to get me to run that hot garbage with no training and no bump in pay.

Oh hell yes, that's a piece of garbage.
