Today we shut down and boxed up the z/OS system. It's rolling out the

Most of the operation got switched to either an AS/400 or VM/VSE
platform.
It was nice being here. I will lurk a while and then end my
subscription. Everyone have a good life.
I've probably got 2-3 years left before ours is gone. I won't be able
to afford to retire quite yet though.

Sorry to hear it, "Bo"; that, unfortunately, is how I lost my job as
well. I wish you better luck than I had. I ended up taking my
retirement, pulling my belt tight and making do. Thanks to friends, at
least I can still keep my hand in, and maybe finish the RACF reporting
tools I was developing at the time.
Howard, I hope you're saving every last cent you can scrape out of the
barrel; the job market is NOT GOOD!!!!!!!!
