Thread: Your made up job title

    Default Your made up job title

    As many of you may know (or may not know), I work for one of the largest auto auctions on the west coast. I'm the main IT guy here. This morning, I received an email from one of my co-workers and noticed their signature at the bottom. It stated, "Lot Operation Administrative Supervisor". What the heck does that even mean? This person enters vehicle info into our system. I started to think to myself, hmmmm.... could I possibly make up some over blown job title just to inflate my position? So I started thinking again(which as you may or may not know is a very dangerous thing for me). I think I'm gonna go with:

    Overlord, Master and Commander of all things computer and network related.

    What do you guys think?

    So that it fits on your business card I'd shorten it to "Network Overlord"

    I like it! I may just do that.

    I have so many co-workers here that make up these ridiculous job titles when in reality, they are just people who work with cars all day long. Yes, their jobs are important to the day to day operations around here, but really? Why do people need to make up these grandiose titles? Wow, just.... wow.

    When customers ask what I do here, I just say, I'm the IT guy. Nothing more. Good enough.

    Doesn't sound that stupid. That actually makes sense to me.

    I really didn't want people to take this thread the wrong way. It's meant to be a little humerous and let people poke fun at job titles.

    To add to all of the specialists, I'm a research specialist. Prior to that I was an associate research specialist. Maybe, in a few months, I'll be a senior research specialist at which point I'll hit my head on the glass ceiling that fills the space between senior and distinguished reseach specialist. Maybe it would be simpler to just call myself a minion.
    Mmm... Saturns.

    My current official title (on my cards) is Material Handling Speciaist, LOL. I've had titles of Application Engineer, Marketing Engineer (try explaining that) and Account Manager. Some of our Salesmen have cards that say Sales Professional and some say Territory Manager. Honestly, I could order more business cards and change my title to "Corporate Asset #10567334298765.1" and I doubt the lady at Corporate that places the orders would pay any attention.

    I have a BS in Blonde Research. It does not exclude brunettes, redheads, and the occasional lady with purple hair that I would see in NYC.

    Not much needed for this work. Just a telescope and a escape plan. (Depending on where you set your telescope up)

    Short skirts and 6-8' stages were a boon to my research.

    So my official title is "Head Research Specialist Of All Things Lovely"

    It's a tough job, but someone has to do it.

    I also wrote a book on the 400 reasons I shouldn't be married. It was titled "Catcher In The Poop Pile".

    It was immediately followed by a book by several ladies titled "The SOB Is Right For Once".

    Marc, they do it with cell phones, so a camcorder is a step up.

    Just this week, my title was changed to 'Manager I'. I kind of prefer 'Exalted Master of All Things Useless'.
