There's a lot more COBOL folks out there than people realize. It also is still being taught in some universities.

UNT has an entire mainframe-focused course track:

Texas A&M has at least one COBOL class as well: https://catalog.tamusa.edu/search/?P=CISA+2354

I haven't checked other unis, but I suspect there are plenty more.

That's not to say these clowns know anything about it though, or they wouldn't have been working for Must in the first place.

Interesting! I was almost certain that COBOL wasn't being taught anymore.
