Silly job descriptions.
Looking in the mod nominations thread I see there is a post mentioning job description mania or words to that effect. I could never see the point of this, is it to make the employee feel more important?, does he/she want to feel more important?, and where did it all originate?. I was never a job snob and if I had to sweep the streets for a living I would gladly do it but I would prefer to be called a street sweeper and not a brush mechanic. Here is a list of the top ten silly job descriptions.
