Many highway departments are looking for people who know how to set up 
and use their Variable Message System trailers and permanent signs to 
inform/warn drivers of events ahead. Or dairy farmers looking for people 
to teach their cows to use the Voluntary Milking System.

Computer related, knowledge of VMs (virtual machines) is a valuable 
skill to have, eventually including using VMS 9.x on x86 virtual machines.

It appears the best way to find jobs using the VMS operating system is 
to search for 'OpenVMS'. As much as I dislike that term. I wonder if 
such jobs ever go begging because nobody can find them and the employer 
just uses 'VMS' everywhere.
