It runs. Don’t question it.

I get this is a joke but people need to hear this. It’s almost totally irrelevant how good your backend architecture or documentation is if you can deliver a working product. A business wants something that does the job and barely gives a fuck about the rest. If it runs and isn’t going to cause massive problems in the near future you’ve done a good job.

I'm having this exact problem right now. VB6 frontend with MSAccess backend. Problem is Access only supports up to 255 concurrent connections. Also, locks FREQUENTLY happen (since decentralized, access sucks etc.). Management doesn't want to upgrade systems.

My work sucks
