Took over responsibility for some shell scripting glue. Task: migrate to new servers. "How hard can it be?" 2 months later I am still completely lost. I have random input/output files going everywhere, complete flustercuck of perl dependencies, and ftp processes I can't test lest I bork prod.

Edit: and even if I "succeed" I'm pretty sure it needs a total rewrite. I think I'm performing a cross-org table join using ftp and text files with undocumented time dependencies.
