It's probably also highly automated and the staff's job is just to watch for irregularities and alert the necessary teams.
I mean, I'm all for giving jobs to humans and all, but isn't monitoring a bunch of numbers and sending an alert when they go wrong one of the few things computers are actually objectively better at than humans are?
Edit: Holy crap people. I understand that they're probably not there for that purpose. That was the entire point I was trying to make. You don't ALL need to point out the obvious to me.
I would assume that these people are there mainly because they know what to do if something goes wrong, instead of sitting there for easily automatable tasks.
I also have to assume they probably do rotations, like watch/guard duty in the military, of control room and more active work, or it would get suuuuper boring real fast. Plus their skills would get rusty if nothing ever happened.
But maybe I’m overly optimistic.
Watching the same screen show the same shit all day long would be boring as hell.
