Title: Knob Head (seriously!)eval Description: Transportation specialist. Ok, I remember being derogatorily called this name as a young person. Who knew that with the right training a person could actually grow up to be one? Average Pay Rate: $44,000/year 2. Title: Ideation Director Description: Marketing Executive. Idea + Generation = Ideation? This is why the marketing people should not be left unsupervised for long periods of time. Average Pay Rate: $120,070/year 3. Title: Integration Synchronicity Specialist Description: Systems Engineer. It looks like the technology department has fallen prey to the marketing department’s “ideations.” Average Pay Rate: $90,000/year 4. Title: Business Communications Conveyer Description: Courier. It’s honest work for those who do not want to be stuck in an office. The dream job tends to sour on bad weather days, however. Average Pay Rate: $25,710/year 5. Title: Public Sanitation Technicians Description: Garbage Collector. This has to be the most under-appreciated job on the planet. Average Pay Rate: $29,000/year 6. Title: Office Hygiene Control Specialist Description: Cleaner/Janitor. Again, this is honest work for those who want a physically active job and the opportunity to snoop around offices after hours. Average Pay Rate: $21,970/year 7. Title: Office Administration Facilitator Description: Office Orderly. If you are fortunate enough to have obtained such a cushy position, just be thankful for the moment. With companies downsizing and managers expected to multi-task, the office orderly may be an endangered species. Average Pay Rate: $28,136/year 8. Title: Theft Prevention and Surveillance Officer Description: Watchman/Security Guard. As long as wealth distribution officers or thieves as they are so disrespectfully called exist, the good security guard will always remain employed. Average Pay Rate: $52,000/year 9. Title: Dreams Fulfiller Description: Financial Services Consultant. According to the “Occupy Wall Street” crowd, the financial services industry may indeed have made someone’s dream come true at the expense of 99% of Americans representing the middle class. Average Pay Rate: $81,802/year 10. Title: Printed Document Handler Description: Typist. Yes, this occupation still exists usually in the form of a court clerk or data entry analyst. To be competitive in this field, one has to be extremely fast and accurate. I’m talking smoke coming from your fingers fast! Average Pay Rate: $43,000/year 11. Title: Change Catalyst Description: Business Executive. Lately “change” in business equates to layoffs. I’d venture to call this position the “termination catalyst.” Average Pay Rate: $110,550/year 12. Title: Bat Cave Scavenger Description: Fertilizer collector. This job requires identifying a bat habitat and proceeding to collect the bat’s poop. The bat’s guano is supposed to be a rich source of natural fertilizer. This position was featured on “Dirty Jobs” with Mike Rowe. This is clearly a very nasty career choice and no cool, black “bat mobile” is included. Average Pay Rate: Unknown; pay may vary by bat cave. 13. Title: Food Preparation Officer Description: Cook. This is one of my most esteemed professions. Average Pay Rate: $40,000/year for a specialty food service catering cook. 14. Title: Office Access Control Specialist Description: Receptionist. This is the infamous door keeper dreaded by outside sales professionals. Average Pay Rate: $25,095/year 15. Title: Family Environs Upkeep Manager Description: House Maid. An even more politically incorrect description would be simply “Mom.” For the record though, the description is officially “housekeeper”. Average Pay Rate: $21,840/year These last 5 positions with funny job names are from companies which were hiring. 16. Title: PHP Ninja Description: Web Application Developer Average Pay Rate: $60,000/year Hiring Company: SurfMerchants LLC 17. Title: Vision Clearance Engineer Description: Windshield Replacer Average Pay Rate: $50,000/year and up Hiring Company: Redline Executives 18. Title: Nutritional Intervention Advisor Description: Weight Loss Consultant Average Pay Rate: $19,000/year Hiring Company: Jenny Craig 19. Title: Tonsorial Artist Description: Barber Average Pay Rate: $19,998/year and up Hiring Company: Baxter Finley Barber and Shop 20. Title: Canine Relocation Specialist Description: Dog catcher also known as animal control. Average Pay Rate: $34,020/year Hiring Company: State and local governments Did the lists inspire a career change or a sigh of relieved contentment for your current position? At the very least, you may be tempted to revamp your resume using some of these creative titles.
