Why learn anything new when COBOL is still alive and well?

Which is more than can be said for us old Cobolers.
Mind you many a true word... No matter how hard I've tried to keep away over the last 6 years, I keep ending up with at least some Cobol work!
Keeps me in beer tokens... Yes, sorry dear... I meant to say nice bottle of Chardonnay.

Hmmm... this is an interesting topic. I've been wondering what other technologies to try and get into in the future as well... and Since Nick has the COBOL and Patato Picking market monopoly, I'm going to have to think of something else.
I'm hoping (when) I pick up a new role in London, I'll be dealing with some new technologies, what that'll be I don't know. I would be interested in doing something with Peoplesoft or Oracle 11i or something... maybe some other DB technology, DB2 (or the other Nick Mentioned) and even SQL Server, just out of interest.
I was thinking about going on and Oracle Spatial course... but I've told my employer I'm leaving for the Motherland, so I don't think they'd be too keen to pay for it....

mine as well
However I am not sure what ERP is good, SAP is like crap0la as well, untunable.
I remember couple of months back was in a customer, their have SAP R/3 and one day the CTO wasnt happy with one of batch processes which took too long, my company sent 4 SAP consultants trying to optimize the process, since they are SAPPERs they only know how to deal at SAP level, they spent 2 weeks and couldnt speedup the process, one of my collegues created an index in one of the tables and process ran in 2 minutes when it normally takes 6 hours, the CTO was so mad at these expensive SAP consultants

Which Learning track? Easy....
In light of Pando's last reply prehaps the best career path is a Oracle-SAP Hybrid of some description, although that sounds quite scary to me and probably a sin against nature

I am planning on growing my hair, collecting tattoos and playing in a band. Too many IT'ers are singing the blues these days, I will be their messenger, their voice, it will be my cross to bear.
