I didn't read the whole article but it is similar to what my mom told me. My mom worked for AT&T in the late 60's early 70s as one of the girls that would take your program and make the punch cards or take your punch cards and run them. She also said that you just checked it over as much as possible and got good at not making many mistakes because of how tedious it was. From what I recall, she said her dept. was basically a 24hour operation. She also said that she hated it and didnt stay in that dept for long.
