Annual performance review review (yes, that is deliberate) over and it was fine (though I really laugh too much as a filler ) and I have exciting news: we're all getting new titles! Except....none of them fit me. None of the descriptions match the odd combination of work I do either. So I'm currently titleless. I'm kinda proud.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Protocol, perhaps?
... I fail to understand why a scientist should need to take four paragraphs to explain why a telescope building has to be white. With charts. In full-color. @@

Ann, that's a ferret.
The thing is, if we can't call it a policy because it hasn't been voted on by faculty, isn't there a better synonym for the word policy than the word procedure? Like, rule.
Around here, we issue a lot of "Guidance."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Because sometimes the University really really really wants to paint it turquoise blue and beige and sometimes the Forest Service really really wants it to be a particular shade of brown and starts waving regs. at you and sometimes the designer gets a wild hair about mauve and ...I don't even want to talk about the tasteful blue on the ops blgd's gutters that was vetoed because it might clash with the sky..
I really wish I were kidding, but I lived through these wars.

You should get to make up your own title, sarameg.

Sort of. "Guidance" isn't a Rule, which has the force of law but is harder to amend.

Oh and then the Airforce gets hinky about its radar reflectivity or something and....

Totally. Part of the problem is, when I'm asked what I do, in seriousness, it takes a bit. I'm very random.
