I am probably the Junior Sub Assistant Deputy Vice Something of Something.

I've worked in a number of countries and so far none of them have been so title-focused as they are here.

I used to be a Knowledge Manager, or as my husband called me 'Knowledge B***h'.

But now I'm CEO Of All She Surveys.

Valet's can make pretty good money at a decent hotel, in the higher end hotels I've worked at they took in 100-200 a shift in tips on average + min. wage per hour.

Same with bartender and servers, good tips in any decent hotel.

Titles I have had:

Night Auditor
Ramp Agent then changed to fleet service agent for whatever reason
Ground Operations/load planning
Customer Service/Baggage Service (lost luggage, horrible position...lol)


I came to the US the easy way by birth.

Lab Manager, Technical Manager and QA/QC officer.

I only manage 3 others, well 2 until I replace the terminated one

Still wondering if management is worth the hassle.

Was a Technical Editor until it became so boring I was considering chucking myself out the office window. Moved to Philly, then moved to NYC, then I tried to transition into being a book editor, which segued into recording my voiceover for an audiobook, then worked in a Manhattan cupcake shop pouring coffee while studying NLP and editing bad fiction for free. Then got pregnant, now I taxi my husband to work, my kid to pre-k and make peanut butter jelly sandwiches for both while doing the odd voice over job.
