I was just cruising through the coldfusion job postings on the raleigh
craigslist, and I came across the following in one of the postings:
This position requires a programmer who is NOT set
on his/her own methodology. Our team does not create
un-necessary code with a complicated development
methodology or process. ItÂ’s very important that you
can relate to this philosophy.
This is the most brilliant thing I've ever read. It could only be
slightly more brilliant if they weren't obviously "anti-framework".
One of my pet peeves has always been people who REQUIRE candidates have
experience in a specific methodology in order to be considered for a
job. In my opinion, any good coldfusion developer can pick up any
framework they want pretty quickly. fusebox, mach-ii, model-glue, whatever.
I've been programming in coldfusion for 9 years, and I've never used a
"framework" of any kind. NOT because I don't want to, but because I've
never NEEDED to. None of my employers have ever asked me to use a
specific methodology or framework, and maybe that's because I've always
been on essentially a one person development team. But that doesn't
mean I couldn't learn a framework if I was asked to.
Okay, done ranting.
Rick
