FORTRAN IV programmers, using an old WATFOR compiler ... no need for new fangled languages like RPG.

You and I are older than dirt. RPG was so very ugly that I never put it on a resume. Same for Perl, for that matter.

I also had a long period of time using FORTRAN, the last being on Computer Automation Alpha LSI-4 minicomputers. That compiler wasn't reliable.
