Re: RDi background color

It's odd for me to come in as my second career (Development) and be a
younger one.... I'm (only?) 46 and most the people I learn from think I'm
young. My development career (first career was in medicine, but drove me
nuts) is young, but I'm not. Been developing for about 4 years (came from
the Java - .Net realm) and 1.5 of that is now in RPG/ILE. I must say the
hardest thing for me to acquire is solid help modernizing the code bringing
code written in the 80's - 90's to the ILE/RPG-Free world. It's like
learning 4 to 6 languages: OCL, CLP, CLLE, RPG II, RPG III, RPG
IV/ILE/Free. But, I'm here to stay. I just need to post more as there is
very little help around locally.

Not as atypical as you would think. I spend a lot of time on site with
customers. I'd say at well over half of them, the majority of the staff is
under 50.

That being said, I work for a UI modernization company. So our customers
"get it". They are usually looking to move their applications forward and
are bringing in new talent.

I think you'd agree that's atypical.

Most of our staff is under 50. Heck, just in my office I have I have 4
