A monkey of all codes

Name: Anonymous 2009-12-13 13:26

I have a dickload of programming languages listed on out my resume -- more than my peers (I'm a 22-year-old kiddie fresh from college).  I have them divided into "primary" and "other", and tend to switch them around every year or so (syntax and SE/EE API-wise, I know Java very well...but give me 6+ months without it, and I do stupid shit like forget what package contains the collections library).  I've also got other non-enterprise-class things like Lua and Ruby on there.  Then there's C, C#, C++, VB.Net, VB6 (hold on, now -- companies will hire you to port "legacy" VB6 apps), and Perl.  I've completed relatively large-scale projects in these languages that explore the depth of both the language's syntax and its supporting API.  I could probably put scheme on there, but that's sort of cheap.  Of course XHTML, CSS, and SQL get thrown on.  Again, internship/project experience that demonstrates proficiency.

Should I be pruning the list?  I like to think that it reflects my consideration of a language as a tool, rather than something to specialize in the fanboyism of.  It's fun to learn something new, even if you can't retain all you've learned in explicit detail forever.
