Pathetic Pilot Salaries

Yep, you've done things the right way so far. I missed the step over to C++ and
sidestepped to writing requirements. Wrong move, but the job market's picking up
there again. Pick up PERL while you're at it. For some reason, that's hot now.

I began learning Perl about 4 years ago (like a pilot's license,
learning the basics of a given language is a 'license to learn', so I've
never stopped learning it).

It's one of the most fun languages I've used. I find it very expressive
and natural to write - I don't find it clumsy like many scripting
languages.

(Actually, on my next CV (US readers: s/CV/resume/) I'm going to put
INTERCAL in the list of languages and see if the interviewer picks it up
:-))
