I'm sorry, but that's the a**hole way of running a network... make the place unnecessarily complex so you're the only one who knows how any of it works so "they don't dare fire me." That rarely works out well -- and often encourages firings. Having been the replacement and consultant called in to sort it all out, I support the death penalty for such people.
