I’ve listed my skills and jobs here. Worked for numerous companies, some rather large, (GM, Revco, Parker Hannifin, Kaiser Permanente, Kent State, Phar Mor, Mellon Bank, First Energy, American Electric Power, Alltel, Medical Mutual of Ohio, Microfocus, and others. I can tell you’re not a college grad. Because you downplay what you lack. And try so hard to puff yourself up as well as others who couldn’t hack college.

Degrees are often most relevant to people who rely on them for credibility, vs. having actual qualifications and experience. "Unless you work for IBM, you’re likely an installer of zOS" shows profound ignorance of what system programming actually entails: making effective business-related use of what IBM and other vendors provide. Not just installing -- that's a poor excuse for what system programming has been for decades. It's too bad that in your decades of IT work at those dozens of jobs (so many, such short tenures?) you never encountered the real thing. Your attitude towards a skill you don't posses is fascinating. Seems a lot like sour grapes: refers to an attitude in which someone adopts a negative attitude to something because they cannot have it themselves. Have you felt inadequate seeing assembler code you couldn't understand on the list? Perhaps cheer yourself up by reading some comfortable JCL, or utility control statements. And set some nice variables to feel better. On Mon, 4 Sep 2023 00:06:16 +0000, Bill Johnson <mellonb...@yahoo.com> wrote: >Degrees are never relevant to the non-degreed.
