My favorite title bump is “Head of X”. Because rarely the person is ever the actual head.

- lotsofpulp 3y agoIn finance, VP is not a “formal” executive title, it is just what they give to 24 to 26 year olds. In retail/hospitality/many other customer facing positions, manager is also just someone who gets paid a salary in exchange for being on call and working 60+ hour weeks while shortstaffed.
