If I went through the trouble of learning ruby could I get hired as a programmer? Do people use it in the real world, or is it simply an outmoted language easy for beginners to learn?

Yes! Lots of places use ruby, as well as ruby on rails. The patterns used there also translate well to all web applications. I always use the rails way of doing things as a reference even for my work in node.js and the browser.
