What do you use now? If you know java or C++ it will be a piece of cake to pick up. People who get hoity toity about programming languages need to get a grip on reality.

There are no verbs. I like verbs. Verbs get stuff done. OOP hides the verbs.

In a command-centric you would say "Change this to blue". In OOP you would say "This is now blue". I hate that.
 
I'm a noob technical recruiter and I have no idea what to do with a candidate with 6 years of asp.net experience who has never worked with C#. in fact I have a hard time wrapping my head around exactly what that means, I thought the two were hand in hand

anyway I know the dude is not getting one of the 5 jobs I have open because they all want c#

yea yea yea,... you hate Microsoft.. blah blah blah

FORTRAN 4 Lyfe.

A note on the quote. Just because you are a genius and contribute immensely to the founding of an entire field doesn't mean everything you say or believe should be taken as scripture. Newton was a believer in alchemy. Einstein felt that quantum mechanics had to be fundamentally wrong at some level, he understood it very well and even contributed to it but very much disliked how it said the universe operated. Only fools believe in alchemy any more and while quantum mechanics probably isn't the whole picture no serious scientist any longer questions it's how the universe works (this isn't entirely true). OOP programming isn't just a yuppy programming fad. It's how programming is done now, period (with some notable exceptions).
 
I am an EE and I even think going language to language is no big deal at all....

Also, what is so bad about OO programming?

Uh no. I don't hate Microsoft, it's just a dead end these days. I wouldn't invest in Objective-C either as it's an Apple-only dead end.

it's only a 'dead end' if you plan on hopping around.

if he found a job where he can prosper, and grow his skillbase and knowledgebase... who cares.
