Deutsche Bahn is not punctual and still uses the "ancient" system!
He never expected to see such a job advertisement in Germany in 2024.
High-quality graphical interfaces for train control systems and real-time technical parameters for drivers of high-speed trains and regional trains.
Skill: Win311
Windows and legacy operating system administrators, especially with expertise in MS-DOS and Windows operating systems.
Dream on, 311！Even if you are co-opted, don't get too deep!
Some time ago, Deutsche Bahn released a win311 types of advertisements quickly spread on the Internet, and Deutsche Bahn was also ridiculed by countless netizens. Why...
Launched in 1993"workgpoups 3.11 "Revolutionary features such as networking, LAN, and plug and play, but were withdrawn in November 2008 and Microsoft discontinued support for it.
In other words, DB wants to find a bit in Windows 311 An expert with more than 30 years of experience in operating systems, or rehire a retired expert. Is it easier to do this?
Amid the laughter of a crowd, the job ad was taken down again. It is not known if this has something to do with the attention he receives.
Germany** requested confirmation of the authenticity of the advertisement. According to an investigation in Germany**, the ad came from Siemens Mobility, which produces internal combustion engines and regional trains for Deutsche Bahn and also employs people for the system.
A spokesman for Simonsons confirmed the veracity of the statement and explained in obscure official language:"With trains and rail infrastructure over 30 years in service, our customer Deutsche Bahn will continue to use proven, industry-standard legacy systems. Our mission is to ensure that these systems are supported and maintained by the system for the life of their use"。
Ironically, a German** simplified translation of this phrase:"Some trains are still using old technology"。
However, both Deutsche Bahn and Siemens Mobile are emphasizing the need to ensure the safety of passengers and employees, even if outdated systems continue to be used. In addition, Deutsche Bahn emphasizes that while most rail systems are still using WIN 311, but some trains use modern technologies, including artificial intelligence.
However, neither company responded to the reasons for the withdrawal of the job advertisement.
In fact, the on-time performance for long-haul shipments in 2023 is only 64%, slightly lower than last year's (65.).2%）。Of those, 36% had delays of more than 5 minutes and 59 seconds.
By 2022, Deutsche Bahn's punctuality is expected to increase to 70%, according to a plan drawn up a few months ago in which Deutsche Bahn receives €86 billion in subsidies from federal, state and local**.
Now, Deutsche Bahn has to consider whether to use the money for a raise in the drivers, a new operating system, or to train a batch of post-00s to master win311；After all, it will be difficult to find another veteran employee who is proficient in this technology in a few years.
