Ex-Titled
AITOOW thinks we need to add some appropriate euphemisms for modern, self-congratulatory titles people have invented for themselves (to hide the banality and simplicity of their endeavours). We already have the effacing terms - "ambulance chaser", "bean counter", "talking head", "shrink", "bullshit arist", "slum lord". I wish to add - "Shylock/Money Lender/Loan Shark" for any VC/PE adherent. "Astrologist/Gypsy" for any financial planner/analyst. "Bookie or Fortune Hunter" for any financial transaction employee or hedge fund douche. "Clerk" for almost any sub-Exec-VP position at a business. "Baby Sitter" for any exec VP position or higher (can also be used for teachers). "Tooth Mason" for dentists. "Butchers" or "Refer-ists" or "Someone else's discovery mimic" or "Drug Pusher" or "Body Mechanic"for doctors. "Mother In Law/Yenta" for any consultant. "Organ Grinder's Monkey" for any performer. "Dilettante/Parasite" for any monarch/stay at home blank/on social assistance/researcher. "House Pimp" for any real estate broker. "Carnival Barker" for anyone is sales. "Wife" for anyone in purchasing". "Piss Boy/Girl" for any executive assistant. "Flying Piss Boy/Girl" for any flight attendant. I could spend all day on this, but, hopefully it will be more interactive (unlike most of this blog so far) if I leave the rest to be supplemented by you.
