Learned that the old company is switching from Navision to Axapta, the morons. The slightest research—cost them a $50K consultant, I'm told—will tell you that the latter is higher-scale ERP for a user base in the hundreds, vs. the ~20 I left them at; programming and support will require at least the same-fold budget increase; and there's little difference between the two that a business their size will be taking advantage of to not be anymore (a business their size). Susan says it's Fortune 500 software, laughing out loud. For Chris'sake, their monthly sales often couldn't even cover its cost! Maybe the remaining "Executive Team" members, i.e., golfers, will sacrifice their salaries for it? Another fine example of them trying to make their work easier, instead of just plain working. This I must remember to mention in the epilogue to my book on hapless Asian-American entrepreneurs.
