Most people's job titles are an accurate description of their role.
For example, if you manage your company's email marketing campaigns, your title might be something like "Email Marketing Manager." If you work in your company's customer service department, you might be a "Customer Service Representative."
Some job titles make a little less sense -- like say, "Dream Alchemist." (We'll save the scrutiny over those titles for another post.)
