Welcome to dayshift appstro, always more hectic. Do you make plates too? Of course you're short handed. This is the pattern in printing now--Have the least amount of people in prepress at the lowest amount of cost. It's all about the business model, but there's a price to pay. An error on press just throws the whole business scheme right out the window! Burnout is another, turnover and not able to find skilled people. Some plants are now wanting there few prepress people to run the digital presses. If it were me I'd tell them that more people are needed and please tell me your plans to hire in short order, if not you've got my notice. It sounds harsh but from experience being the old grouch that I am, their business model stays.
