In a discussion at work yesterday, one of my coworkers commented that he expected to see Unix Sysadmin somewhere in the titles of someone who submits their resume for review. With that comment, I had to check out my job history and see what my titles were in the past. These are all job changes at the location I was working at (for example, I was at NASA 13 years but worked for four different companies and my title changed 14 times). Here’s the list:

Pretty interesting history there. I pulled it off of my Linked In profile and added a couple of bits that can’t be added because I don’t recall the company name (for example, I was a Photo Editor for a month at one place).
