Anyone else use UPS's "Worldship" software?
What a great example of main-frame mentality to address a problem.
Bloated, overblown, and unwieldy comes to mind.
I realize that they are doing a HUGE task tracking millions (if not
billions) of packages around the world minute by minute, but the more I
use it, the more of a behemoth it becomes. Just incredible.
Sorry, had to vent to the only people I know who would (possibly)
commiserate. (The UPS tech support folks didn't...wasn't in their script.)
I wrote an app back in 2003 that UPS Worldship hooked into for
Order/address information. I can relate.
