There is no financial motive for software to work well. The people who sign the check for it almost never have to use it.

That's where you need people like me who give a fuck about nothing but customer experience and if my employer manages to make a buck, good for them. My employer is generally just a middle man who siphons money out of both our pockets. And makes me fill out a second, useless timesheet while you're paying me to work.

Jokes on me though because I've been out of work for 3 months, so take my suggestion of fuck your employer with a grain of salt.
