When I was at Apple (before Steve returned, when it was going out of business), the employees got to pick their titles. Most were approved, but one woman wanted to be "Madonna of the File System", I think that was not. She did, however, know that code inside and out and deserved to get it.


I suppose picking "CEO" would be rejected as well? :-)

I was once interviewed for a job by the CEO. He asked me where I saw myself in 5 years. I said "CEO".

I got a "no hire".
