I got a nice stock offer to stay with a company doing COBOL for 3 years around Y2K. Of course I took it. By the time the three years had elapsed the stock price had more than doubled. I only eventually got out of COBOL because it was boring. Years later I was between gigs and interviewed with a company that wanted me to go back to COBOL. I would have, but they lo-balled the salary, like I was going to take a $20K pay cut to go back to COBOL! Ended up staying in the Java world |
