Job Title....
-
hmmmm... we don't really have them, but they look nice on business cards. Given the presence of a hollywood team of visual experts and 3D visualization experts from across the country I think it is time I change mine from "Computer Programmer". Work doesn't care, as long as you don't lie, or the title denotes a seniority (we're a flat organization, mostly all peers). So now I am in search of a job title.... (or subtitle) Computer programmer/3D specialist? any ideas?... yeah I know... creativity is easier in 3D graphics than tooting my own horn.

Computer Programmer, but useSenior Software Engineersince that's what people expect (especially those writing the checks; it just sounds like you should pay the latter more.)

Except that might denote seniority for some peoples eyes. :)

Computer Programmer is a good one. In my experience, those who give themselves a title the length of a worthy essay, often can't even code. I bet the Software Guy was a pretty decent programmer. :)

Oddly enough, so did I. His name wouldn't happen to be Paul, would it?

Still is. He wrote code for both Macs and PCs. One day I asked which he preferred. His classic answer: "Which ever one I'm not working on."

Well, you probably aren't moving to another company anytime soon, but the title might have an effect on salary. Engineer seems to qualify for more than programmer. Personally I like Code Monkey. Will eat bugs for food.

Sounds WAY too much like MediaMonkey or SeaMonkey! Haven't you heard that "Computer Programmer" as a job title is obsolete because it's too generic? "Software Engineer" is now the proper term, because you're "Engineering" (building) software!

Engineer is no less generic than programmer. You are also programming a computer.

Those don't mean anything to me. Code monkey does. As when they expect you to be another monkey banging away at the keys whilst disregarding your input.

Well, if I can't convince my girlfriend to move down here if it gets more serious, I could always start my own business up there... but I think that is for the future. We already have a CEO, and I think he might complain... :laugh:

Well, you said that "we're a flat organization, mostly all peers". If it's flat, then you are all at the same level, so... congratulations new CEO! :-D
