You are maybe right! The friend had told me that the company lost their some good ABAP Programmers recently. I know you commented before in my blog, but you just gave a link. I looked at your blog <a href="http://friendlyabaper.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Your Friendly ABAPer</a>. I like it! I'll read your blog. Jelena,

It usually means that the company/manager/team got burned a lot by hiring some bad programmers and now they are blowing on water, so to say. Later this paranoia inevitably reflects in the attitude towards the new employee and just makes him/her and everyone around more nervous, which is counterproductive. Good for you that it didn't work out! I know first hand that it is very difficult to select the right person for a job, but such questioning doesn't make any sense. Especially on the phone - anyone could be just googling the answers, so what do they expect?! Also one might perfectly know the "difference between Batch Input and CALL TRANSACTION" (whatever that is) but still be lazy and arrogant.
