Or... I do blood tests & that.

Nah, I've always said it how it is. Gardener, factory monkey, bouncer, soldier, bodyguard, copper. People and organisations that glam up the names of mundane jobs should be sacked for having too much time on their hands.

I cannot remember the exact details, but there was some research that showed job titles had a "financial" value

In some cases employees would value something like being a "Senior" being added to their post title rather that a small pay rise

I've always thought that they can call me toilet cleaner if they want, as long as they pay me for what I really do.

I'm an Export Sales Executive by title. My immediate colleague began signing his correspondence as "Regional Head of Sales". The boss was not impressed.
