Re: Yawn
I had a situation where the year end print of the general ledger involved multiple boxes of fanfold and a cranky chain printer.
I would get the print job going and would sleep on the carpet (thank Arioch it was not in a real data center) until awoken whenever the printer would go quiet.
I coded the software and ran the jobs, thus I was a DevOp prior to 1980. And a bit of a BOFH.
A benefit to the job was a location not far from Times Square (pre-Disney) and a pub that served litres of German beer.
