When your last programming job involved Borland Pascal for DOS.

Please dont. Every language is good at something. Your taste, experience and objectives are not the absolute truth. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean its a shitty language.
JavaScript makes me want to flip the table and say “Fuck this shit”, but I can never be sure what “this” refers to.
At college we were put in a web dev project with literally zero experience in the languages used (php and Javascript iirc), there was so much confusion before people realized this! (we had almost exclusively worked in c++ and java until then)

(1) Think of a noun
(2) Google "<noun>.js"
(3) If a library with that name exists - drink
I don't like the language, I feel it's a bastardization of a proper language with insecure typing and scope, but it's hard to argue with its wide spread use. I just wait, hopefully, wistfully, for the day I can properly do WASM without incompatibility issues (aside from EoL browsers or ones that haven't seen a meaningful update in more than a year).
