@thomasfuchs listening to a room at IDUG clap and cheer at a story of a new dev not getting any training, following a manual to the letter causing a bigger problem by bad documentation...then the story turned to a name and shame which made those jackals laugh showed me that the industry there has systemic problems about knowledge hording and it's going to sting hard very soon.

@thomasfuchs as someone who graduated in the late 00s and straight into mainframe work. It's interesting to explain, yeah it's super stable and has crazy transaction volumes it can sustain (the history of IMS is a bit bonkers). Buuuuuut it's a weird working market of older developers refusing to knowledge share and younger devs being locked out of the space by mockery and lack of teamwork and on the job training.

It's going to get real weird when those older devs start expiring.
