Another printer story, we have people that do a lot of printing, and some of the stuff gets printed to something called "centralize print and mail" which is located in chicago and then some of it is printed locally. So they have two computers on their desk, one for printing things to the local printer and one to print to centralized. The software we use is a piece of #$!&@. Like a true shining turd. It was written in fox pro like 10 years ago, and instead of overhauling it we just bolt on things that are needed and then never remove the old stuff. It's so awful, but it's the reason I have a job.


foxpro is one of the best pieces of desktop software ever. wish it would've taken off instead of sql or access or many other of those POS tools with big marketing.

I guess our problem is that no one knows how to program for it. We literally do not have a single person in our organization that can work on it. We pay massive fees to outside companies for any updates. I led a project to remove an option from a menu and it cost $18k for the programmer.

I don't know shit about FoxPro and I guarantee I could figure that out in a couple days, tops. I'll charge you $500/hr. Save you 50% on your next project.

problem with foxpro is that it's pretty much been untouched since the mid 90's. I guess I should've specified that it was good in its day, and should've been maintained.

I bid $450/hr :lol:

You weren't in class today because you were sick...So you just emailed me the assignment due 10 hours ago? Were you so sick that you couldn't get to your computer earlier?

i have like 100,000 points on viggle. started using it last spring. you used to be able to get so many bonus points when it was in its infancy. it is hard to stockpile them now.
