Default 'Screen Guy', alternative job title?
hi everyone.
I got a new job at the shop where I work. They gave me the screen dept.
So I'm the guy who checks the artwork (films) and sets up the screens, burns them, stores them , reclaims them etc...

So I was wondering what my job title is. 'Screen Guy' is fine but there must be something a little more glamorous to call myself.
What do you call that guy in your shop?
While I'm here, if you could suggest any threads that I should read that might help make my new job a little easier I would really appreciate it.
Thanks all

Lead print Dude's implies that I'm head printer and that could get me trouble
I like it though, maybe in a few years

Years ago when I worked in a screenprint shop, the place had two sides, textiles and flatwork (signs). The owner eventually fired all the textile guys except for me (because I'm awesome) and I jokingly started calling myself the textile shop foreman just to get a rise out of the sign shop foreman.

maybe just "screen technition" or "screen tech"

this would be a cooler job title to tell your friends that wouldnt get co-workers fired up.

okay, best thing about this job is I get to sit down sometimes!

The other best thing is I don't have a boss anymore.

"Screen Technician" is what I was going to suggest too.

"Technical Officer" is something I've also seen used for a technical support/maintenance sort of a role.
