Who's got time for xanax? I'm going full throttle for total burnout and the early checkout. I've already gotten the heart upgrade (icd/pacemaker) since I started, stress related, stoking up on my first ulcer and I've only been here 2 years. On the other hand, I'm a wireless device now!
I work for a small school district, approx. 450 users (350 kids and the rest staff), a mix of 250 win desktops and laptops, about to roll out 180 macs in two weeks and it's just me. I have a director, that uh... "directs", and a data manager that does just that, but it's just me for installs and support for a district that spans 1750 square miles. Sure it's a little nuts sometime, okay nuts most of the time, but it seems to work.
Someone once recommended 1 support person per 50 users, but I guess it depends on a lot of different things, such as how organized the shop is and availability of qualified personnel in the local employment pools. Some places may be forced to operate with larger workloads on fewer staff due to factors like these.
