@foone Funny, we keep deleting that but it’s back the next morning every time. No one knows why! (Kidding, a little)

@foone To REALLY nail that sweet spot the job applicant needs substantial experience in VisualCOBOLScript for Windows 98, CGI edition (which, I shit you not, WAS A REAL THING in the late 90s).

@foone When I was looking at IRS jobs (used to work there until this year, no prize for guessing what happened) I noticed a lot of their IT positions have COBOL listed as a requirement/preferred skill.I don't really have a punchline for this I just found it funny. COBOL is still alive and well in the bureaucracy somewhere

@foone I was in an IRS mailroom back in 2020. The equipment has date tags so I found out that my stapler was old enough to remember 9/11.That stapler was older than some of the people working there now that I think about it
