IEFBR14
IEFBR14 is an IBM mainframe utility program ... It is a placeholder whose purpose is to do nothing. As it turned out, over the years, it would have problems correctly doing nothing and would sometimes fail in the task.

Life has a funny way of dealing with surprises. While I talked about COBOL programmers here, I was happily awaiting a project allocation after completing my training in Unix. But guess what they needed? Mainframe engineers! Yes, business requirements meant that I had to undergo another round of training. In Mainframe.
And it is not an easy experience. I've been struggling to cope up with it. :(
