"Many of those who had coded Java in obscurity ended up as cab drivers or greeters at Walmart." Are you kidding around? Java is one of the most desired language

"Many of those who had coded Java in obscurity ended up as cab drivers or greeters at Walmart." Are you kidding around? Java is one of the most desired language and companies are dying to find Java developers. You must not be a programmer, definitely not a Java programmer. Java programmers are respected highly and their skills are all time desired. Java is just going to get bigger and bigger in all kinds of devices and technologies. The one's who are driving cabs and working at Walmart are the fine art's/history/english etc majors (no offence but that's what it is).
- kevinrpope 15y agoThe quote explicitly states this was occuring in 2001-2004. In 2012 you are right that Java developers are in very strong demand. However, in 2002 that was definitely not the case.
