I'm just gonna justify my answer by saying that the company I currently work for specifically recruited me because of my Ruby (on Rails) experience and two years later, I'm still their number one choice when they get clients asking for RoR... because where I live (France), RoR is not really commonly used but still quite popular. So there aren't a lot of openings for Ruby (on Rails) devs, but when there's one, that's a really precious thing to have in your skill set.
And that's only my professional opinion. My personal opinion would be even simpler: Ruby is an awesome language and even though the Ruby hype has passed, it's still a great back-end language for the web, and more. And as many have said in the other comments: a lot of big players (GitHub, Apple, etc...) use Ruby (on Rails), which says a lot.
