Now, as far as ownership, All I know is that little elves deliver my Pay check on Fridays!!!  |  IP: Logged Aaron Mehocic Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 804 From: New Castle, PA, USA Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-22-2000 08:32 AM                     My name is Aaron Mehocic and I work for New Castle Theaters Inc. in New Castle, Pennsylvania. I am the head projectionist at Westgate Cinemas 9 located on State Street. I started with the company in January, 1991, as an usher, and worked my way up to assistant manager in April, 1993. I then transfered into the booth in May, 1996, when I could not handle the public anymore.  |  IP: Logged Tom Ferreira Expert Film Handler Posts: 203 From: Conway, NH, USA Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-22-2000 08:34 AM                     I am Tom Ferreira, manager of the Claremont Cinema Center, Claremont, New Hampshire. We are part of a small independent circuit owned by Boston Concessions Group out of Cambridge, Mass. I was hired fifteen years ago as a projectionist in North Conway, NH, for the same company, under different ownership. I paid my dues for thirteen years as a projectionist and assistant manager, before relocating to manage this facility. Yes, Tri-Boro is part of our circuit, where Paul Goulet fights off the evil Showcase challenge, as is the Mt. Valley Mall Theatre in North Conway, where Chris Barahona sells tickets for R Rated Films to twelve year olds against his better judgment. Other locations in the circuit are in Windham and Wells, Maine ; Newport, Rhode Island; Brattleboro and West Dover, Vermont; Brockton and Pittsfield, Massachusetts. Bob Barsamian is not the principle owner of the circuit, though several years ago, he was. I don't get involved in company politics and ownership issues; like Paul said, Magic Fairies deliver our paychecks.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-22-2000 09:00 AM                     My name is on the left. I am motion picture Service technician for CLACO Equipment And Service in Salt Lake City, UT. Have been here since Sept 1st, befor that at General Theatrical Supply in SLC for 3 and a half years. I am also certified by Strand Lighting, and Colortran as the mountain states service representative. Before moving to Salt Lake City I ran my own service company in the Chicago area for over 15 years selling, installing, and repairing equipment all over northern Indiana, northern Illinois, and the southern half of Wisconsin. While in the midwest I provided dailies setups for over 35 feature films shooting on location. Before my time in this buisness I worked in electronics, mainly television, but also worked several years for Canon USA repairing cameras and lenses(till I developed eye trouble from it), before that I was at Panasonic for 5 years as a bench tech. Before this stuff not much matters. I restore old pre 1950's televisions and enjoy large format photography, hiking, snowshoeing, horse back riding, and too many other things as hobbies. There's way too much to do here in Utah!!
