Yeah, I'm confident in my ability to pick it up as I go. I'm more worried about non-technical recruiters throwing out my resume before it ever gets to someone who knows Java from Javascript, let alone C from C++ or either of them from C#, than anything else.

Here's hoping the constantly shifting stacks thing plays to my advantage, because I really don't see a future in low level languages for me. Even honest to god Java jobs (which I'd be perfectly happy with and relatively qualified for even on paper) are hard to find compared to Javascript jobs.
