      'C. ****** is now connected to E. ****, Innovation Manager, Enterprise Architect and Program Manager at BigCo' (obviously a busy chap)

      I feel truly honoured to know such people; people who are so important that they have long job titles that include the word 'Manager' TWICE!

      Should I now update my job title? At the moment it's 'Tester'; I'm inclined to call myself 'General Dogsbody' but that could be construed as taking the piss. Suggestions?
      Depends on how seriously you take LinkedIn Mitch

      Mine is full of 'test mangler', 'project mangler' and general dogsbody titles. I don't take it seriously though, in fact, I don't take much seriously

      Still looking for testers in West Yorks though, if you fancy a bit of Community Service
      When freedom comes along, don't PISH in the water supply.....

        You too are infected with Testeritis; the inability to take anything whatsoever seriously.

        As for West Yorkshire; I'll find other ways of wasting my life.

          You can't beat the yanks when it comes to job titles. The one I saw was on a sticker on a free newspaper in the foyer of the hotel I was staying in

          Vice president of housekeeping services, Courtyard Marriot, Cary

          So that''s the second in charge of housekeeping services (cleaner) in a small hotel in the middle of nowhere in north Cariolina
          Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

          I preferred version 1!
