COBOL legacy systems in finance and government are somewhat of a meme. However, I've never actually met a single person who's day job is to maintain one. I'd be curious to learn what systems are you working on?

About 10 years ago I was working on a net-new COBOL compiler for z/OS. There was a huge demand from banks especially for this.
