I'm an expert
I spent four years of my life acquiring a PhD. This makes me an expert in the use of transparency in computer interfaces. It's not a hugely useful or interesting expertise, but it's all mine. I'm pretty hot at sitting on the sofa, too.
What are you lot experts in?

I am an expert in fixing fuckups. Other people's fuckups. Bastards.
I take the end product of a development process which involves over 2000 system and component engineers, multiplexed data interfaces using 5 differnt communication protocols, up to 22 subsystem electronic control modules, calibration and configuration systems run by a mainframe supercomputer, and a manufacturing process honed over 50 years of experience;- and when (not if) the finished product doesn't work, I take the damn thing apart and put it back together so that it goes properly.
As no-one else has this enviable position, I have somehow become the 'expert'. And it makes me despair sometime to see that the product of engineers with highly qualified educational standards, years worth of experience and many successful projects behind them can still manage to write down '3' when they mean '4' and vice versa. The consequences of which could be dire......
