I work in small business IT, and I literally have to use IE11 on a weekly basis to interface with some shoddy something.

And it's not necessarily just old stuff, either- there are brand new NVRs and cameras going in today that require IE and some godforsaken ActiveX control to work. IE is going to be around for a long time.

Isn't that also what people said about Flash?

Yes, and they were right. I have to deal with Flash regularly, too. So much so that I keep a VM around for solely that purpose.
