job titles

Today on the back of a bus I saw a big advert for a new finance company in town. It featured some mildly famous rugby league player on the back, thumbs up, his signature scrawled down the bottom as if to say 'I guarantee this finance company will not screw you over.'

I won't even get into the disgust I feel at being supposed to care whether some rugby player thinks a finance company is good (or was paid to think so). But I did find this rather amusing:

Underneath his picture, it said 'Stacey Jones - Kiwi Legend'.

Next time I am asked for my job title I am going to write 'Kiwi legend'. Sounds much better than 'student' / 'unemployed'.
