I don't really like working in legacy environments, but it's not that bad
either. You just get typecast as a legacy programmer of environment x and
language y.
Pascal was my first language, oh so long ago, and I actually enjoyed
working with it for programming 101 and 201. I've had COBOL classes t
Perhaps while you are looking for a programming job, you could work on an
open source project as a volunteer. Fix some bugs and start to build a
"portfolio" of programming successes/examples that you can show to
potential employers. No face to face interaction needed, just email. Might
help you dec
Oh that's much too clean and sensible. You could also use MyPaint:

It sounds like you are doing the sort of thing that you should be using
Inkscape. Creating arrows in inkscape is super easy and they can be
easily moved and modified.
After importing your image that you want to put arrows on; draw a line
with the bezier tool, then go to Object -> Fill and St
I’m technically NOT ADD, but my wife says I am. I tend to agree with her at
times on this… (“My Dr says I have ADD, but I disagree because … Oooh, look at

Anyway, IF one of your ADD symptoms is the ability to hyperfocus, and the

ADD can be great for Software engineering, but very challenging for
Waterfall testing cycles. however If you document your code and what you
are doing you can still code quite nicely.
In It you will have similar mundane things where the ADD kicks in and make
it challenging. Having lived with ADD s
worked it out. thanks!

I know how to create my own arrows but that looks kinda sloppy. I did a web
search but the first one I found was for ver 2.6 and Mine is ver 2.8. The
results for that search was much more promissing but the scm files that
were available for download resulted in a page that said file not found.

another area of interest could be database management, especially on older
oracle based database systems (like 11g). there is a shortage of people there
as well.

BTW, if you’d like to learn Delphi, I could refer you to a place in Delaware
working for the State maintaining some apps that their VR folks use.
I had a contract there for 6 months, and they need someone really badly
full-time to maintain a couple of Delphi apps. There’s also a lot of MS SQL

I don’t mind talking with you, but I think you’re being given some rather
biased advice by someone who probably has no experience in the field.
Programmers as a whole tend to be introverts and rather anti-social. At least
us older folks fit that mold. The younger ones are a bit more sociable.
