Pilots aren't flight SERVICE professionals. They don't service the plane. They don't serve the drinks. I do like what the founder of Organic Valley milk has on his business card - C-I-E-I-O. And if you want some really creative job titles - check out the employees from Cranium. They get to create their own job titles. As a result, you have Grand Pooh Bah (CEO), Viceroy of Toy (the head of toy business), and the CFO is Professor Profit. Ew – I don’t like that title either.
