I'm with pg. When you get a chance to get paid to learn something new, you should never refuse (unless it's torture or chemical weapons manufacture or something). Learn some Java while you get your resume/CV out there. You might find you really like Java. Having more skills will mean you can take a wider range of jobs either way. The last physical office I contracted in was only consciously hiring for Java hackers but they were waist-deep in Perl that needed daily work so anyone that had Perl chops could do that as much as they liked. I think this exactly Java:Perl perception:usage happens to some degree in many, many offices.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
