(hard to make up your mind?) Isn't funny, that every Ada Ad. that says they are looking for Ada programmer, lists C and C++ in the skill set? Does this mean that C/C++ programmers make better Ada programmers? or does it means the company is moving to C/C++ from Ada and they need someone to help them switch? If I am looking for a C/C++ work, the last thing I would do is get a job titled "looking for Ada programmer", because I'll simply be doing C/C++ programming but at the lower Ada programmer rate and having to work in one of those mediocre government defense office buildings using some old run-down PC with 14" monitor to program sitting in some small cube with 5 others programmers cramped into it.
