My only issue is that if it were indeed the width of the columns causing the problem then the script ought not to have returned true even once!

ps u g eww

I not sure if im helping you , how are you invoking the first job in the control ? Are you using
or
? The latter will return a status only after completion of the job being invoked and would be the preferred method.
Polling with a while loop may cost you more cpu cycles!

Your job name is a dynamic length after all and it may reside upon the borderline of being chopped.
(test and see)
run your command in a nice size window.
resize window smaller, try again.
add the options James gave for a wide ps output, wash rince repeat.
Also... please paste the syntax you are using for the dsjob -run command.
