Numero Uno.

Somehow, Espanol seems like the correct way to begin here.

Alright, to all the people with menial jobs who seem to think that your promotion/title/role is the be-all and end-all to your conglomerate's general enterprising situation, I have this to say. The title you are given has been decided upon by the higher-ups in your company to boost employee morale. Being a "Treasurer" or "Customer Service Specialist" is not something you add to your life's accomplishment. It is total bullshit. I am working off the assumption you are somewhere between fourteen and twenty, working with me or serving me, and attempting to look down your acne-d nose at me. I do not take this kindly, "average retail chain" employee. So you're promoted, or titled, but let's get real, this does not entitle you to behave in a "holier than thou" sort of way. Face it, you're a Cineplex/Wendy's/Old Navy worker, and that doesn't change with a simple title. Yes, you know your way around, yes, you have been recognized, and no, you don't need to take this opportunity to demonstrate all of this. You can take your job seriously and still have a good time. Get real.
