All,

Our i5 "System Operator" called in and quit with no notice recently, so we
need to hire a replacement.

System Operator is kind of a misnomer.  This is as much a clerical position
as it is a computer operator position.  In fact, the position has
LMTCPB(*YES).  The "big function in life" is to run all billing on a daily
basis, which includes invoices, picking labels, associated reports, etc, but
"Billing Clerk" doesn't seem to cut it.  But since we're a small office (5
clerks and an office supervisor), it's the typical
everybody-does-a-little-bit-of-everything now and then.

I'm actually wondering what to call the position.  The work consists of
things like:

Running the above mentioned billing
Clerical (like some filing in spare time)
Meter outgoing mail from time to time
Data entry
Mount tapes for backups
Verify backups completed
Paper/ribbon/toner changing on printers
Monitor QSYSOPR message queue
Word & Excel
Various short operations tasks on some server PCs

As you can see, a college educated computer type would be bored and
unchallenged, but the more he/she would understand computers, the better it
would be.  Do some of you have a similar position?
