There seem to be a lot of professionals here but I’m sure we have a wide mix.

I’m a Nutritional Therapist working with a GP. I specialise in metabolic therapy.

Can I just add that job titles mean nothing. I recently discovered that (where I work) an IT Solutions Analyst is another term for IT customer services. No qualifications needed

Edited

Yeah you’re right I suppose.
my title means nothing to most people, it requires a level 8 Degree and 2-3years experience. I retrained for this industry and I qualified nearly 2years ago now. This is my second position and is at the second level up on 50k.

I take shit from grown ups who cannot function as an adults and need “help” to do everything. No I won’t write the form for you
No I won’t log in to your work email and send an email to HR (me) requesting time off to go for a medical appointment which isn’t bloody urgent and you could go after work seeing as you finish at 3:15pm and have every school holiday off.
No you can’t take bloody holidays during term time - you’re a teacher ffs
