We are currently in the process of updating our job description for our sole employee, the Theatre Manager aka Executive Director aka Business Manager. It is easy to see that our current job description was developed in reaction to shortcomings of previous TMs (i.e., duty #1 is "get the mail" due to the TM who did not like to do that).

Does anyone have a job description that they would be willing to give us so we can compare and incorporate the parts we are missing. Sorry to say, I do not have an electronic version of ours to share back, though I guess I could scan it for anyone who really wants it.

While we're at it, does anyone have a good ethics policy to share? I think we operate on the "If we like/know you, you get free admission/concessions/playbill advertising and, if we don't, you don't" system. Particularly suspect are vendors who "donate" services in exchange for free advertising and, of course, recognition of their donation (not net of value exchanged) in the playbill.

Thanks!
