My most favourite job ad was about ten-ish years ago.
There was a road-side poster opposite the bus stop advertising the brand new IBM AS/400.
I was reading Computing or Computer Weekly at the bus stop. It had a job ad for someone with "2 years IBM AS/400 experience".My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment

I used to regularly get “I see you’ve got Visual C++, but have you got any straight C++?”
Long, long ago I used to have resourcers giving me grief about the amount of experience on each model of DEC VAX I had ever programmed on, “sorry, my client is looking for more experience of 780’s; your experience of 750’s and 782’s won’t count.”How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

I quite often get them ringing up for IBM mainframe positions and then I ask what operating system, z/VM, z/OS, z/TPF, zLinux or z/VSE. They then mention MVS which hasn't been around for years (mutated into OS/390 and then z/OS) and spend the next 20 minutes giving them a history of mainframe systems. In the end they only wanted a COBOL programmer or DB2 DBA, both of which I'm neither and doesn't even say it in my CV.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment
