"Oh right, what area?"

"Outer space"

*silence*

A friend of a friend works as a "Chough Monitor"

Is that a posh way of saying "Twitcher"?

I've a friend whose job title is "Data Wrangler," and another in middle management who was given free rein to come up with his own job title and so is formally and officially "End Of Level Boss."

When asked to come up with my own title a few years ago I proffered "Guru" or "Technomancer" at which point the offer was withdrawn and I ended up with Technician or Engineer or something equally exciting. Bah.

I knew a woman who had a job at a yogart factory, staring at the milk.

Well that's what my friend told me. 😀

I'd go for "Supreme Ruler and Dictator For Life". A point for where I nicked that from although I may have got it slightly wrong.

I once worked with the "Head of health and happiness". Either best job ever, or a hiding to nothing...

My current boss is "Scotland director" 😆

I saw an advert for a "Domestic Violence Coordinator" which tickled me.

My mum did some work with Trebor Basset some years ago, they had a "manager of continuous liquorice".

When I visited the recruitent centre near us they had a job on their whiteboard for an "Analist".
I'm assuming they wanted an analyst.

[i]Bee Inspector [/i]

There's the makings of a Two Ronnies sketch there.

"I'm a Bee inspector"
"Capital or lower case?"
"No Bee's"
"Who does all the other letters, then?"
etc
