Enterprise Apps: Where Simple Tasks Go To Die

[text] When client sends a nasty mail on list of issues after testing the website on IE in his decade old computer

The classic tale of software development! You've got this beautiful, sleeping lion of efficient code that's been purring along just fine in production for months. Then some product manager comes along with a stick and the brilliant idea to "just add one small feature" that's about to wake the beast and unleash chaos across your entire codebase. That baboon with a stick is the perfect embodiment of management poking at stable systems without understanding the delicate balance that keeps everything from exploding. Ten bucks says the lion wakes up and someone's going to be debugging until 4 AM on a Saturday.
