45K for an operator's job!  45K to sit and watch a system, mount a
few tapes, print a few reports (granted that is on an automated
system).  On a non-automated system 45K is still a ton for running
jobs (I don't care how many), printing reports, doing backups,
distributing reports (including bursting and decolating).

The Chicago area must be worse than the Silicon Valley, even then, I
think that 45K is a good amount for babysitting (loading paper,
mouting tapes, distributing a few reports).  I may be totally off
base on this especially being I am not familliar with the Chicago
area so please forgive me if I am.

Thank you,

Barry Durand
