Return of the Mainframe Dinosaurs

With the Pandemic has come the demand for the Mainframe Dinosaurs.

With this I mean specifically programmers versed in COBOL1. programming. Along with COBOL, CICS2., DB23., and JCL4. in the Mainframe environment.

With extensive use in Business and Financial Institutions and Understanding of COBOL will once again become usefull.
