I don’t get why people hate the COBOL programming language so much. It might be old but so is the C language and SQL queries but neither of them is called obsolete. COBOL has some advantages in the office environment – it’s very easy to read and understand and all of data storage routines are up front. Plus usually each part of a COBOL program is quite simple – far less complicated than the casts, pointers and direct memory access functions in C – and much less prone to programming mistakes.

Just because a field exists, doesn’t mean you should dump whatever crap fits in there without rhythm or reason. But maybe that’s the American-way — it’s the same kind of shit that landfill and sewage treatment plant operators deal with all of the time — the idea that if it fits, it ships, no matter what it is. The obnoxious things one has to deal with as the Data Services Director, lol.
