[Techtalk] mainframe careers

[Carla Schroder]

howdy gang,

Any mainframe peeps out there? I have the impression that a career in
some kind of mainframe admin or programming job is one of the most
stable tech jobs, and that people spending 30 years on the job is not
uncommon in mainframe-land. Partly because unlike the PC world the
technology is stable (and also very progressive and cutting-edge, but
always with backwards-compatiblity), and not random and changing like in
x86-land. True? Not true? Something else?
