Will agree that in businesses where hierarchy is important, titles can be helpful in many ways. I took a job and was hired by the CFO. He gave me a title that turned out to almost put me on equal footing with him. Only the CEO could fire me and he didn't have the cajones to fire anybody. I was allowed things that I could barely believe at times, and probably beneficial to me since I had a tendency to be blunt and opinionated there.


The hierarchy/prestige isn't what I'm after. It's the fact that my company ties your title to your pay grade. And I've maxed out mine with a title that has never really been accurate to my role.

so I still like the idea of the framed Cubs win thing for Dh, but I'm not sure that is his "thing" or not. He hasn't shown a lot of interest in that kind of stuff. So, I'm going to wait and like, give it as a "gift" that I haven't actually ordered yet. If he's like meh, then I'll skip.

But, I do want to try and get him a Cubs hoodie. I successfully got him a Blackhawks one a couple years ago. Found that order in my email so now I roughly have a size guide. Bad news is most of the ones I know he'd like are out of stock in the blue and/or his size.

I hate writing documentation. If I have to document that you need to press the <enter> key when issuing a command you aren't qualified to do the job.

Put out a big construction bag last night filled with a huge amount of Styrofoam packing from the garage cabinets I had delivered. Just notice it was not there anymore although the garbage guy hadn't come yet. Ah, it had floated away down the alley and street.
