I find it humorous that y’all think it’s only the company you worked at that had a fragile tech solution held together (sometimes literally) with duct tape and coat hangers, as part of a mission critical business process.

Pretty much every company big or tiny has at least one permanent “temporary” solution in place.

At my company, we have a saying: "That which is temporary shall outlive us all."

Pretty much every company 90% of the tech infastructure I've worked for is held together with 10 year old sun dried rubber bands.

There's nothing more permanent than a temporary building

Right, Guys the financial industry is held up with ducktape and the hope that people will remember how to code like its 1975.
