You ask the best questions; however, I am not good at answering them. I'll think about it and come back, via Michele again.

Definitely a tough question this week, Jean-Luc! I enjoyed reading everyone else's answers but my brain is apparently not up to speed today to make up any of my own.

In my law firm we assign the title of "VP for Library Management" to the junior associate. S/he must then field all the cold calls from book salespeople.

Cheers from Michele.

Sorry for the late visit. Was on a City Trip this weekend - not pc nearby.

This is a great TWQ!

Sadly, I'm not that inventive with jobtitles - but will think about it...
