If you intend to become a developer you will need broad shoulders, you will have to work with tools that you do not like in environments you would not choose.
"An accounting system in Basic on VMS" "Update a COBOL system on a Bull mainframe" "Integrate with an erlang system talking to MSSQL Server" "A web site written in PHP" "Update this Classic ASP site to ASP.NET" "Visual Basic!!!" As a developer you roll your sleeves up, shrug and do your best. Show them your skills which will earn their respect. There is more maintenance work to be done than green field work. Plumbers have to wade through human excrement to fix the plumbing, chamber maids have to clean up vomit encrusted hotel rooms. They don't want to, they wouldn't choose to but they are professionals. They do their best and take pride in doing a good job. You have to use Windows. I'll sign off before I swear at you for your infantile attitude. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
