'Your resume says that you have IBM mainframe batch processing experience
for the past (n) decades... but I don't see much about JCL.'

'Your resume says that you have IBM VSAM KSDS experience... are you
familiar with IDCAMS?'

'Your resumes says that you're a certified Oracle DBA... the only database
experience I see is all this DB2 application stuff, starting in 1987 or
so, do you think you can manage with Oracle?'

These are all statements I've heard from pimps, more times than would be
interesting to recall.
