Hah that's if you're lucky.

Most of the time when someone says they work at SAP or Oracle they get a "God I hate SAP" because they're using a GUI from 1990 that looks like ass and is not intuitive.

My suspicion is that people don't hate SAP because of bad looking GUI, but because it implements rigid, hard-to-discover business processes that make everyone miserable (but make the company as a whole efficient).

Have you seen the SAP GUI?

But you are also right as well - and you'd be surprised at how inefficient it really can be.
