I wasn't hired to work with old junk. if I would have known I never would have taken the job. I also don't have enough money to walk away or risk standing up to management.
The code isn't just old, it's very badly written and has zero documentation.
And I'll add: strive to never create such code yourself. You are 100% correct that everyone says old code is badly written and has zero documentation. So is the code we're writing today. Once you realize that you'll have become enlightened and will be a better programmer for the rest of your years.

Now you learned 2 valuable lessons:
- There's a lot of shitty code that you sometimes have to deal with
- Never put yourself into a state of dependency on a single income source, unless you wish to have the emotions you are feeling now
