Amen to this one.  I have seen people with many years of experience
but they think they know everything and are not willing to learn new
technology.

Careful - many of us old fossils keep up to date.  In fact, we have a
harder time finding new opportunities simply because potential employers
say "He'll cost me a fortune with all that experience" and never think
that he may really be worth it.  And if you're willing to take a giant
step backwards, they think you're desperate.  I guess you'll really
never understand until you've been through it.
