Good one Griff. You deserve a pat on the back.

A quick lookup suggests that the difference between a Full Stack Developer and Full Stack Engineer is that of project management and systems admin.
So what if you are the project manager, team lead, front+back end, support, setup admin?
Does it just role back round to being Developer?
Or a point of stopping and saying "hay, how about we hire some new people"

This term is usurped, a stack is a stack of protocols, transports, drivers, etc, that move data.

No, a stack is a stack of pancakes, or muffins, or sandwiches, or ...
|

|

No, a stack is the pile of printed requests, bug reports, personal idea scratchings/doodles, your 3 missing keycards, urgent to-do lists, last weeks half eaten sandwich and your neighbors stapler in the in-tray.

I totally agree, especially about the pancakes bit. And not just pancakes on their own, but with Mable Syrup and Ice Cream.

I think the official title is: "Unsackable"

Until your employer merges your company with one with a bigger web team that uses open source, drops the Microsoft stack and eliminates the job you've held for 18+ years.
Yes, I'm whining.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

The title doesn't matter, they just need to know where to put the broom.

ah, don't say that, "they" will expect me to clean up as well.

They don't already?
Sounds like you have an unusually good employer!

did somebody say pancakes?
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

That pretty much describes my job. I also manage the company servers, websites, anything tech. I have a business partner who used to code but now mostly handles the billing, training, and directing me.
We've had other employees in the past, but decided over a decade ago to lose the office and the dead weight and work from home...best decision ever!

I think I see what you're driving at, and agree. We should abolish titles altogether.
Person X might be really strong on UI (for example), but not so much in other areas. Doesn't make them a "Senior developer". Makes them a good UI developer, and learning in the other areas.
I once worked with a "Senior developer" who, when we moved a database, needed help updating her connection string. Upon further investigation, it turned out each morning she manually connected to the db, ran some queries and produced some information. Never occurred to her to automate that process.
"Senior" just means you've been doing this a long time. Doesn't mean you're any good at any particular aspect of it.
