[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have gotten to the age where all of our friends are Director, VPs, Partners, etc.  It is a mind f*ck that we are now all the bosses. I feel like just the other day we were all in undergrad and grad school getting our first jobs and living in group houses.  Now we are all parents, with big time jobs and stress.  Was just in LinkedIn and this thought hit me when I keep seeing new job notices and positions that my friends have.  [/quote]

Yet another reason to avoid LinkedIn.  I find that everyone who's working a corporate desk job is a "Director", "Vice President" or "AVP" on their LinkedIn.  These titles seem to be a dime a dozen, and it's worth remembering that there are many professions out there that these titles are meaningless.  As long as your job can pay bills, support a family, and let you enjoy life, a title is just that, a title.[/quote]

Exactly. If you have fulfillment in life, the title is secondary to what really matters-your health, family, friends, enjoyment in life. No one is going to be impressed by your title at your funeral. [/quote]
