Do you ever see a Job advertised and haven't a clue what it is? Some job titles are so pretentious. Here's one I saw earlier:-

"Wondering whether anyone can recommend any good eyebrow technicians? Looking for HD brows and brow mapping. Mobile or local."

Sorry, I know I'm old but "eyebrow technician" "HD brows" "brow mapping". What on earth is that about? Is this somewhere you go and end up with eyebrows halfway up your forehead and a permanently surprised look?

I'm a domestic engineer, but a not a hugely good one. What gardening based pretentious descriptions could there be? Arboreal fallout reclamation?

No..you end up with eyebrows that look like a Groucho Marx moustache drawn on with a Sharpie.

Maybe they'd had chemo and lost them? 
I worked with a girl who had plucked her eyebrows so much that they never grew back! She meticulously drew them on every day  for the 30+ years that I knew her. Not sure what happened after that because she moved to Australia.

Here's one I came across - visual merchandiser - I hadn't a clue what it meant, and was not much wiser after looking it up -  the job entails defining, designing and implementing a creative visual merchandising strategy  Huh 

I finally worked out that a visual merchandiser is what in my day we called a window dresser!   Dodgy
