What was a person who worked in a Fotomat called?

I guess Fotomat was a discriminator...sex discrimination? At least in the beginning, workers in Fotomat were women, and referred to as "Fotomates" I was a female Fotomate from 1984-1987. At that time the men were also referred to as Fotomates. Poor guys. We ladies also had a scarf we had to wear. If I recall correctly it was a plaid or checked sort of design.
