Another telecommunications tidbit as reported by the WASHINGTON POST
of 13 Feb 1991:

"A 911 operator earned nearly $100,000 to become the highest-paid city
employee in Portland, Oregon, last year because the city's emergency
system has chronic staffing problems.  The operator, whom the city
declined to identify, routinely worked 90-hour weeks."
