When the heck did .NET took over????

I was looking at job vacancies and all of them all said to the point of must have exp in C# or ASP (for web programming).

When the heck did Microsoft took over??? I though C++ and PHP were reigning still.

Damn your boss is awesome.

It's the "3-5 years commercial experience" that gets me. Like, where exactly do I get all these years of experience with this huge list of "technologies" if literally every job requires experience? Hell even so-called entry level positions require 1 years experience. And then they bitch about the ongoing software crisis. Idiots.
