I'm back home for christmas break (last monday), and I'm working weekday matinees. Man, I miss working the projectors, feels good to get my hands on them [Big Grin]

That's nice.

Just kidding! I took a year and a half break from projecting recently and once I got back I felt like I didn't miss a single beat. It's like riding a bike, except for when it's not. [Smile]

Welcome back Daniel,

Don't listen to that fellow from Colorado, he doesn't even like Chuck Norris movies. You can let him know that he should never go to Texas. The Rangers are waiting for him.

How did you make out on your History of Cinema paper?

thanks, who doesn't like chuck norris? [Confused]

I of course got an A on the paper [Big Grin]

You should post your paper here so we can all criticize it for you. [Smile]

I'm thinking about it, everyone here would tear the paper to shreads:)

Maybe I will when I'm back at school as the paper is saved on my other computer..

I'll always remember the day after Christmas because that was the day I came back to a theatre after a 3-month absence and started a projectionist job there which lasted almost 8 years- this year will be the 10th anniversary. I had to leave because I couldn't live very well on what they paid (plus no health benefits), although I never did the job for the money (I worked a few second odd jobs on the side, but that got exhausting after a while). That job was the best Christmas present I ever got though.
I actually enjoyed working on Christmas every year.
