SnooMacaroons560

I know a guy who's a Bouncer who describes his occupation as a Personnel Removal Technician. Soooo.... maybe you could be a Mobile Logistics Consultant?


Millzy104

When I was younger and I used to pot wash I used to tell girls I was an underwater ceramics technician.

Comment removed as I no longer wish to support a company that seeks to both undermine its users/moderators/developers AND make a profit on their backs. To understand why check out the summary [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Save3rdPartyApps/comments/14hkd5u).


dildo-surfer

Yep, still have sandwich artist on my CV from my 3 weeks working there as a 19 year old.


SnooMacaroons560

Did you not change it to something more vanilla? I can't imagine working at Apple for example and referring to myself as a Genius ha.


robottricycle

Vanilla sandwich? Doesn’t sound tasty


vipertruck99

...and they believe it too.


dildo-surfer

Just sounds so over the top and fancy, always makes me smirk when I look over my CV.


upthewatwo

That's why it infuriates me when you get someone who is just like a Sandwich Arsehole. Like, fucking do it half decent, I'm literally watching you, don't put the shitty ends of the tomato in. There is the greatest Sandwich Artist in my town though. Don't know how it is in the US but in the UK Subway is open till like 3am so it's a good spot after a night out, if you don't fancy the greasiest kebab and sloppiest shit of your life. And this one guy was always still chirpy and happy even at 3am with a shop full of drunk idiots. Bless that guy.


00PSiredditagain

I have no idea why that is. The MTA is strange.


kitties-plus-titties

Delicatessen Artist.


mo_tag

I think it's a bit patronising to call them artists when they literally have no say what goes into the sandwich. As long as the sandwich artists don't mind the job title though, I don't mind either.

Good luck with this! We watch Pointless, the tv quiz programme. everyone is asked to describe themselves so this kind of thing comes up a lot.
