I run lights for my schools theatre program and I'm the head of lights, I asked my director if I could have my title put on my varsity jacket and he said yes I could put Lighting Designer on my jacket. But that's not what I do. Theatre lighting has five jobs to it, lighting designer, lighting programmer, light board operator, lighting tech, and master electrician. And thing is, I do all of these. Not always alone I'll admit, but I'm in charge of all of them. And he insinuated I don't do as much, work as hard, as I do. He did agree to Head of Lights being fine. But it sorta stings that he'd try to say that. I get to get my title anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter...
