Perl was write only.

I worked at a company that had a 50k bash/perl install script maintained by the 3 person QA team.

Dear lord that was a mess.

I had to build a custom middle ware sso thingy that ran on six and worked with ssl certs.

I fought cpan for two days trying to get anything to work.

Switched to java, had it done and in production in an afternoon.

Not a fan of Perl.
