KO, I feel the same way every day working with cobol developers. I do user acceptance testing. When I report a bug, I hear Charlie Brown's teacher saying "Whawh whawh whawh."

Cobol? I know how to program in cobol, but I know of no reason to do so in this day and age. Had a course in cobol in 1983 or 84 at uni, that was the last year they gave that course because cobol was considered obsolete (it was mandatory, had no choice, am scarred for life).

Re: Don\'t come home until u is sobern! (NC Thread)
Unfortunately the panic wasn't as big on the other side of the pond, so no wirtschaftswunder for me. I guess the main reason was that most systems were developed later than in the US and therefore made to better standards. It would also require me to leave a job, that I really enjoyed for only about $10k more a year, a job that I thought then could last until retirement. Now 2 jobs later........

But the point is, there is still a somewhat niche market out there for cobol developers. That said... we are in the last phases of replacing the system and it should be totaly gone by mid 2008.
