what...no COBOL?
Well, not since Y2K for me. My journey:
Mid-to-late 80's: COBOL. Thousands of lines of code! Seven-layer arrays, statistical programs that run for days! yeah!
Early 90's: Relational databases, DBA certification, CICS. Wow! COBOL on a screen and using DB2!
Late 90s: Java! WWW! Y2K! World's gonna end! Lotsa $$ fixing old COBOL stuff!
Early 2000's: World didn't end! [takes a bow for preventing it]. HTML, VB, MS Access, Sys Admin Certification
Early 10's: Getting into management, missing programming, still puttering around in VB. Technical writing.
Post 10's: .NET, but only know enough to manage team of really smart .NET developers. Still do some Sys Admin stuff.
