Well, that makes me feel better about my lack of (titular) success. On the one hand, I'm paid well as an individual contributor and I do actually do work that I can see the results of, but on the other hand, my title is nothing impressive and my workspace is four feet worth of one of eight twenty-foot long tables in a 10,000 square foot open office bullpen... right next to the wall of Important People who have offices with doors that can close.
