In your career you are likely to be using many, many programming languages. I'm well into the double digits (and my current job has me juggling 4 different environments at once!) If it's a good job, then take it. Build yourself up as a general programmer and you will never be out of work. If you become a X-programmer, you'll be in trouble in the latter half of your career, almost for certain. And, yes, my friends who work with Scala all seem to like it.
