Just wondering how many of you like to call yourself CEO, CFO, COO, DOODOO or whatever.

I call myslef a CEO in my bio, but im actually a Director

I call myself MD (i'm in the UK) or more often i just call myself the proprietor

I don't cally my self anything.

I call myself "GodFather" ;)

Titles are cheap.

And frankly, if you are a small shop, id'ing yourself as the CEO will probably backfire, if indeed you are also technical support, billing, collections, and 24 hour on-call guy/gal.

Better to invent a technical title, in that case, I think.

Or, be completely up front about the size of your org.

No, not the size of your organ.

Simply Webdude. I am an Independent Contractor to the company. I run it, but am neither titled nor owner.

Alan, aka alzie by many friends.

I don't really use a title. "Jay" is good enough.

Is it just me or my perception that the younger host like to put CEO or whatever after their names?

I call myself chief cook and lead bottle washer soon to be diaper changer and in the end no matter how much help I have doing the books monitoring the server, chat lines, and forum I am still the one that catches hell when it don't run.

I see a few people have CEO or whatever in their titles, even here, and some of them I know are not even old enough to shave yet.

Monte> :) good point. I thought it was just me. ;) Does that mean we are old goats???

My friends and my mother refer to me as the "guru" which I am rather uncomfortable with, as many guys and gals could run circles around me. But I am pretty good at fixing most of what ails... :)

On bank apps and such, I am the Proprietor.

On a semi-related note, I applied for license plates today. I decided to change them. My first choice was "WEB HOST" (probably already taken); my second choice was "OPEN SRC"

I had also considered

SRVR ADM
WEBMSTR
WEBGURU
WEBGRRL
LERN CPR <== people that don't know CPR kinda irritate me :)
GOTTA GO (opted not to, figured people would call me in for speeding)
HURRY UP (ditto)
and WANT A G6 (of course, every Mac fan's dream computer)

I opted against all of those. We'll see what comes out, if anything. :) Now how's that for some titles, and boring geeky ones at that. My family looked at me like I had lost my marbles.

No "MOMS TAXI" here.... :blush:


:D Bailey

Well, I call myself Deb however I am legally the CEO and for that reason I acknowledge myself as such, especially where signatures matter.

When it comes to washing windows and scrubbing floors I then become the CEO that still does wash windows and scrub floors :D

Alzie ? Your joking, right ? :D

I'm the CWB

Just to be sure all the "CEO"'s know this, it is completely illegal to call yourself a CEO unless you are marked as such in the incorporation papers.

This means if you aren't incorporated you also can't call yourself CEO :)

Alzie ? Your joking, right ?

been called that for the last 4-5 years by my friends.
