I have worked as a projectionist for 10 years, both union and non-union, but I was always a projectionist. I have worked for 3 theatre chains, all in the top ten in size, and have noticed a trend recently. Most chains refuse to call projectionists just that, even though the job remains virtually the same. Here are some examples I've heard recently:Booth Manager Manager Operator Service Supervisor Usher anything but "projectionist". Why has projectionist become a bad word? Fear of organizing? A negative image of what a projectionist represents? I'm curious if any one has any more names or input. Thanks

Hmm.. Until recently, my nametag at work stated that I am a "Projectionist".It now says that I am the "Head Projectionist". ![](http://www.film-tech.com/ubb/biggrin.gif) …and no, I am not part of a union either! ~GLB ------------------ In some cultures, what I do is considered normal.
