Prescribed

Titulus Honestus

(Honest Job Title, claimed)

Dosage	One (1) LinkedIn profile update in which patient describes their actual job, not the reframed prompt-engineering-strategist version of it
Frequency	Once; repeat after each career pivot
Duration	Permanent honesty
Refills	0 — the job title is, apparently, no more impressive for being obscured

Side effects May include the specific deflation of an inflated professional identity, the phantom urge to 'just add 'AI-adjacent' as a softener,' and — critically — the observation that the 18-month-old 'prompt engineer' title patient had claimed was, apparently, a description of a role that did not, strictly, exist when patient started claiming it.

What is this?

Titulus Honestus is part of the Institute Pharmacy's formulary of satirical prescriptions. Everything on this slip is fictional except the behavior it addresses. A real pharmacist, handed this slip, would decline to fill it. Patients are invited to fill it themselves.

Patients know it in practice as Honest Job Title, claimed — the Latin is ceremonial; the English form is what they actually execute.
