"Hazardous Materials Engineer" has a nice ring to it. What are some other cool-sounding job titles? Do you have a cool-sounding job? Does it live up to its title?

Andrew (enneff), Friday, 14 November 2003 01:50 (twenty-two years ago)

"Bar Manager" doesn't sound overly exciting, no. But it does mean I start work at two in the afternoon. And have cute waitresses.

Matt (Matt), Friday, 14 November 2003 01:58 (twenty-two years ago)

"Day and Billing Supervisor, Langson Library Reserves." Oh, the white-hot passion.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 14 November 2003 01:59 (twenty-two years ago)

fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Friday, 14 November 2003 02:00 (twenty-two years ago)

"Bumfighter"

Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 14 November 2003 02:01 (twenty-two years ago)

Pension plan for that?

Matt (Matt), Friday, 14 November 2003 02:02 (twenty-two years ago)

benefits are shit but the hours are good

fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Friday, 14 November 2003 02:03 (twenty-two years ago)

"That's a point two-five increase after tax per annum per bum fought each year after retrement. Would you like a house?"

Matt (Matt), Friday, 14 November 2003 02:03 (twenty-two years ago)

"Bumkisser"

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 14 November 2003 11:40 (twenty-two years ago)

I've no idea how cool my job title is. I just know that it's long winded - Electronic Content Quality Controller. Prior to that I was an Assistant Local Applications Manager.

MarkH (MarkH), Friday, 14 November 2003 11:47 (twenty-two years ago)

'Change Management Support Specialist' ooohh yeeeaaahh...

robster (robster), Friday, 14 November 2003 11:51 (twenty-two years ago)

apparently, the big boss man wanted the job title to be Electronic Content Production Controller, then we'd be "easy peasy".

MarkH (MarkH), Friday, 14 November 2003 11:54 (twenty-two years ago)

I used to work as a Hausmeister. How cool is that!

(don't translate plz)

Herbstmute (Wintermute), Friday, 14 November 2003 12:37 (twenty-two years ago)

"Workshy Fop" should be written in my passport, according to "friends" of mine. Not that job titles go in passports anymore.

My flatmate is "Curator of Non-Marine Molluscs" at the Natural History Museum, and I think that's pretty fucking cool.

CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Friday, 14 November 2003 13:47 (twenty-two years ago)

"Asshat Engineer".

Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Friday, 14 November 2003 13:50 (twenty-two years ago)

logistics planner - woohoo

although I used to be an Inventory controller

chris (chris), Friday, 14 November 2003 13:51 (twenty-two years ago)

"Laboratory Network Manager" = I unlock passwords and update McAfee Viruscan DAT files.

Spinktor the Unmerciful (mawill5), Friday, 14 November 2003 13:52 (twenty-two years ago)

"Audio Visual Assistant" - I am your eyes and ears! Though I'm quite irritated that my job is considerably more than being an 'assistant' these days.

Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Friday, 14 November 2003 14:07 (twenty-two years ago)

Assistant Resources Co-Ordinator. The vague ones are the best.

Archel (Archel), Friday, 14 November 2003 14:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Curator of Non-Marine Molluscs.

=

Snail Keeper.

Jarlr'mai (jarlrmai), Friday, 14 November 2003 14:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Community Events Co-ordinator (one of my many titles, the key one is "dipshit" though) makes it sound like I organize the events, when really, all I do is compile the weekly calendar.

Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 14 November 2003 15:17 (twenty-two years ago)

i once saw a guy listing his job as "Pumpin Truck"

he wasn't the driver, apparently, he was the TRUCK, and he was PUMPIN, yo!

Jay Dee Sah Mon (Kingfish), Friday, 14 November 2003 15:39 (twenty-two years ago)

misread as PumpKin Truck

Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 14 November 2003 15:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Lollipop lady?

Archel (Archel), Friday, 14 November 2003 15:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Curator of Non-Marine Molluscs = Snail Keeper

Absolutely spot-on! He loves snails, has pictures of them on his walls and everything. Hates slugs tho, go figure.

I once witnessed the incredible sight of two massive (like, 5 inch-long) slugs fucking on our kitchen wall. Really, it was beautiful.

CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Friday, 14 November 2003 16:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Anything where you can be a sergeant-at-arms.

Girolamo Savonarola, Friday, 14 November 2003 16:25 (twenty-two years ago)

My main task for the next three months or so could well be described as Hazardous Materials Analyst!

When I was editing comic books my boss was getting business cards for me and asked what my job title should be. Thinking it wasn't a serious question (editor, obviously) I proposed International Excutive Managing Editorial Director. He thought I was serious and wanted to know if that might be a little on the long side for a card.

Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 14 November 2003 20:55 (twenty-two years ago)

what was his title, Martin?

Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 14 November 2003 20:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Managing Director - straightforward enough.

Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 14 November 2003 21:31 (twenty-two years ago)

hmmmm...

Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 14 November 2003 21:39 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm a Client Care Specialist because I care so much.
