Sorry. My take is that the normal duties of a sysadmin would fall under the "operation of computers" and "repair, or maintenance of computer hardware and related equipment." Then again, there was also an "minimum wage" for that exemption, and, if it's $41 rather than the $27 I remember, you may be covered by overtime laws. (I'm over $41/hour, myself, but I'm contract/hourly, which adds to the confusion.) -- Arthur L. Rubin 216-5888@mcimail.com
