Welp...

Been working on server side email signatures. It list employees name, job title, and extension and/or cell phone if they have a company cell. It gets all the data from Active Directory and the Job Title is imported to Active Directory from Human Resources.

They have me as Server Administrator. Tyically when I email employees it is about an email issue. Looked it up on Salary.com and an email administrator makes $10-15K more than a server administrator.

So asked my bosses that since most of my email has to do with email issues could I change my Job Title in Active Directory to...

Your Friendly Neighborhood Kimray Email Administrator instead of Server Administrator. If it didn't mean a cut in pay. Otherwise just leave it.

Don't think they took it as humor. My immediate boss said they would discuss it. LOL.

I have been signing my Internal company emails having to do with email for years with Your Friendly Neighborhood Kimray Email Administrator. Nobody ever notices.

A couple of HR people are making a big fuss about wanting their certification after their name like, PHR etc. Like anyone really pays attention to or cares about that carp.

What I think is even worse. They are wanting to go to server based signatures to standardize email signatures. There are features for email signature in Exchange that don't actually work. I have been working with Microsoft for a couple of days on this. The guys that work for Microsoft say they don't use the feature. Instead there is a Policy they must follow for email signatures. So not even Microsoft uses server side signatures.
