in reply to Why I choose Perl

Since I have the liberty of choosing my tools, I choose Perl because a lot of what I do is taking files X, Y, & Z and finding the matches (or in some cases, the differences), and Perl is, IMO, the best choice for this task.

My boss is looking for results - and since Perl lets me do my job quickly, it makes me look good in the eyes of the boss, which is one of the keys to continued employment.

The fact that Perl fits the way I work/think (which helps to make work fun) is just an added bonus...
