I'm just curious to know how you guys work. Here in Montreal the utility which we call sound assistant, gets an upgrade when he works as a second boom but the line is not clear. When I was utility my deal was to get a salary between the utility and the boom op but never ask for an ugrade. When they were giving me the scale salary for a utility I was asking for an upgrade when I was used as a boom op.
There is no written rule here in our local 514 but I'm just curious to know how you guys deal with it.
Thanks
Jonathan
