That's where the difference is. For me a sysadmin automates tasks and
operators perform repititive tasks. So if you need to create about 100 new
users a week and call those people to ask some information, I am sure you
do not think this is a task for an experienced sysadmin ?

There are a lot of administrative tasks that are dull and boring to real
sysadmins and other people are perfectly fit for that that have no intent
to become an experience sysadmin. Otherwise your company would be full of
experienced sysadmins. (hey, maybe yours is ?)

Anyway, point being: why does first, second and third level support exist ?
Why not only have third level support, everyone would be better off, right ?
