I'd say that probably around here for those like me that have been in operations/engineering management positions we don't give a squat about what title your biz card says you have, your actions and performance speak by themselves. There are no kings around here so titles most of the time are worthless. By asking what title may impress others is sort of a -1 to start.
It isn't about impression. I'd put 'janitor' on my business card for all I really care. I know what I love to do, and I know what I am great at. 10 years in the industry now. The only person who I try to impress is myself... by staying current on BCP and better ways to do things. My curiosity has the best of me, so I am looking for opinions. You have one ;) Those who know me know what I can do, and in reality, that is all I care about. I'm not out to impress anyone. I just want to be a good netizen like the rest. Impression isn't what I'm after. What I'm curious about is the potential over-use of the term 'engineer'. Cheers, Steve
