Main Frame vs Windows Apps.

The current group of experienced COBOL programmers have good work ethics built-in. But the "kids' showed up, when they wanted to, for meetings. Lateness is disrespect to the manager and the rest of us who made time for the meeting.

I seen a lot of short cuts taken in web page design and coding. We tested our COBOL code and what if conditions were supplied.

The young managers are afraid we will work for a while and then quit. At this point, seasoned workers have settled into a company and are staying! Recognition is desired not always money.
I ,for one, would like to get back on the coding chair and start drinking coffee and debugging code. Acceptance testing is now the last step before documentation. And it suffers a lot because managers don't know how to schedule projects! A manager brings the projects planning skills and programmers do the coding and testing.

I studied COBOL but never used it

Posted by: Cindy K

I learned Cobol back in 1997 while I was in college, thinking I was going to find a job with the Y2K situation. I found a great job after graduating that did not require COBOL skills, and to this day I have not touched it. I don't even see employment requests for COBOL anymore.

Either way you look at it Microsoft Data Center management did not follow standards or best practices in this failure. In which case it makes me wonder more about the outsourcing of corporate data much less personal data.
