Straw Poll
You're asked to maintain a simple program written in a technology you're unfamiliar with. What do you do?
We don't always get to stay in our comfort zones.
Learn the new tech and get to it. What an opportunity
Grind your teeth and get on with it. What a waste of time
Try and pass the task off to someone else
It's a simple app: rewrite it in a different / simpler language or framework. Overall that will save time.
It's just maintenance. Bumble through and just try and get it to work
Deflect support requests by claiming it's user error
Change jobs. If it's not in your skill / interest set then this job isn't for you
Something else. (please comment)
