Anyone with outdated skills can always go to work for the government. Government is so far behind the times, that they are still using obsolete equipment and programs and buying parts for old computers on ebay.
Yes, but you have to be a certain color in most cases.
Very true. I work for a small section of the Dept of Education that is using such an old legacy system that there is only one (very old) employee left in the whole nation who knows the programming (”Easytrieve”).
When he retires I don’t know what we’ll do. No contractor wants to get involved with such old boring stuff, and no federal employees can seem to learn to program.
We can’t get a new system because when we try to get new huge expensive contracts to do so, they somehow fall apart and fail.
