IMHO,if you work as QA tester, perl will do your work well. But in terms of evolving, perl is not good enough yet. At least I've been waiting for a type system, a good B::C module and a jit in perl5 for years, and it's like that i have to continue my waiting(add oil! Reini Urban! ;))
And perl6 is of course the future of perl, consist grammar, plenty of features and better oo, I've been drooling for it years too. But I think too big ambition of parrot authors has delayed its coming. sooner they focus on perl6 development other than javascript, lua, ruby etc, faster we can enjoy the brand new perl.
I am trying to improve my English skills, if you see a mistake please feel free to reply or /msg me a correction

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.
