Yep. I wanted a job writing haskell. Got a job writing haskell. It was one of the worst jobs I ever hard (for non-haskell reasons). Team dynamics, culture, how good is a manager, how overengineered is a code base, how easy it is to feel valued and given responsibility. There's so many more important things than the language that now I actively don't care at all. Plus, I think these elitist programming languages attract more jerks so I'd rather avoid anything too niche and go for a Go job or something.
