Shouldn't watch it really, as it's perhaps  more for the younger viewer, but just for the food content, so I can shout at the screen!

What stands out is that they are, pretty much, all early twenties, but all have high falutin job titles....for instance, just now, two "Employment Consultants"
(work in  a recruitment agency )....

.....and a "Brand Marketing Executive" (Kirby Vacuum Salesman)!

There have been worse....Laugh

I'm sure he is sneering at pretentious job titles rather than the people behind them, and quite right imo.

Confirmed saddo....

The people don't nominate their own job titles, they are given them by their employer (albeit poncified up somewhat, to make them feel good)!

Re the "poofs" episodes, I just can't watch them!

Actually this is quite interesting!

"Kitchen Associate" is a job title used by Wetherspoons (might be others, but that is at the forefront)....

"Prepare, cook and present food quickly and efficiently, meeting our standards. Assist in keeping the kitchen clean, hygienic and tidy, at all times".

That lead me to the ridiculously described "Sandwich Artist" at Subway....

"Subway sandwich artists perform several duties during a typical shift. Sandwich artists assist Subway customers with orders, prepare food to customer specifications, operate cash registers, and complete other jobs assigned by a Subway manager".

Sandwich artist Grin. I've went once, a bored teen grunted a few unintelligible questions at me and I got a quite ordinary sandwich, I've never been back.

I think this job title stuff has arrived from America - where most people seem to be Vice Presidents.

Its a bit ironic, coming from America, because, there,  in my experience people carry out routing service-type jobs with a smile
on their face - rather than the UK where there is often a chip on the shoulder.

Maybe the yanks are more gullible regarding job titles.

Behave saddo, the tone is clearly one of condescension.
