Yeah, did my time working in consulting for state gov bureaus. Some of the worst working environments I've ever been in. Asshole, down-right criminal managers. IT actively pirating software. Computers literally falling apart.

Not sure you could pay me enough to go back. Maybe for something ludicrous, like $3mil/yr and mutual termination at any time. I could probably put up with it for 4 months.

These places that "can't find COBOL programmers" need to stop blaming universities and start taking a harder look at themselves.
