Comment Too busy learning new stuff at work (Score 1) 308
I joined [company with huge datacenters] just last year and so I'm still learning all the cloud/clustery technologies here. Every time I change jobs (every few years) I try to do something a little different. So my last gig was the first time I spent serious time using javascript and PHP (no I didn't like it much). Before that was a few gigs with J2EE and Oracle/DB2; before that was C++; before that was C# and WMI; etc. So if you're fortunate enough to get your employee to pay you to learn new stuff, that's the best way to go. Because then you can spend your time at home on slashdot, etc.
