Today there is a job advertised entitled, simply, "Chair".
What's the oddest job title you've ever encountered?

We have a 'Fun Manager' here
She organises company parties and picnics, and the handouts of free t-shirts and stuff.

Sounds horrible.

Does she walk around dressed as a clown
with the expression of someone who's just smelled dogshit on their shoe 10 seconds after closing thier car door ?
( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Fri 22 May 2009, 11:48, archived)

Her uniform is exactly like Colin's from the Fast Show
She's the most depressed looking person I have ever seen.
( Theoban What of it, Fri 22 May 2009, 11:49, archived)

Douse her in lighter fluid
and burn her to the fucking ground.

It's teh only way.

As her skin sloughs off her face and her eyes boil away
A final tear rolls down the charred remnants of her cheek and she whispers 'thank you' before collapsing into a pile of bones and dust.

at least she'll have finally achieved what is presumably the key objective of her role, as it will be fun to watch

I don't think they discriminate on the grounds of height.

( RR I love you ... in a way, Fri 22 May 2009, 11:45, archived)

I read an article once
that said that a person's height has more correlation with their success than does their sex.
It just so happens most women are shorter.

Chairman is no longer PC
as some companies have female Chairs
(PsychoChomp, Fri 22 May 2009, 11:50, archived)

yeah but it's not "man" as in "man", is it?
it's pronounced "m'n", and dates back to when "man" referred to both sexes anyway. It's all a load of bollocks if you ask me.
