Friend of mine maintains COBOL for an insurance company. He lives on the opposite side of the country from his business, and is only on call one weekend a month.
Dude got hired before he even graduated, getting paid 70k, and gets to live wherever he wants.
I would kill for that lol
70k is likely way underpaid for dealing with COBOL. I've heard of people making 200k for being on-call
Yep I worked in insurance and COBOL. Mostly getting it out of COBOL. Working remote is so nice! I'm hybrid right now it's excellent.
