#2I posted this because I thought that while most HN readers probably don't think like this, it's a useful exercise to get a different perspective in case you come across people who do.

#5> Someone who claims to Lead Efforts To Optimize Production while having the title Sandwich Artist is overstating their accomplishments.
I'm not so sure of that. Does this guy realize how ridiculously long it takes some sandwich shops to make a sandwich? Any Lead[ing] [of] Efforts to Optimize Production would be a welcome change, and if said candidate really did so in a sandwich shop like Togo's (which is notorious for taking, like, 10 minutes to make a goddamn sandwich when the local Port of Subs or Subway takes, like, 2 for an equivalent sandwich), I'd hire that candidate in an instant.
