I'm employed in the state of California as a UNIX administrator.  I am
salaried, at a rate that, divied by 52 and again by 40, is significantly
less than $41/hour.  My job description includes "analyze user
requirements, proceedures, and probles to automate processing or to
improve existing systems," [sec. 3(1)(A)], "plan, design, and build medium
and large-scale UNIX systems to support developers and provide computing
services required by end users," [sec. 3(1)(B)], etc.

However, subdivision (b) (exceptions to the overtime elibigility)
specifies:  "The employee is engaged in the operation of computers or in
the manufacture, repair, or maintenance of computer hardware and
related equipment."

Ungh.  I wish I was a lawyer.  The link to the full text of the bill:
http://info.sen.ca.gov/pub/99-00/bill/sen/sb_0051-0100/sb_88_bill_20000919_chaptered.html

I can provide my full job description if anyone wants to see it.

Just wondering, because the recent downturn has left my roommate
unemployed, and us locked into a lease that we can't afford to break, and
a few extra bucks where I can find them will help immeasurably.  :/

Thanks in advance,
Bob
