Aiya, don't hurt their feelings. Technically, they are not wrong at calling themselves that but we know how it works within the banking sector.
Reminds me of an article from Strait times awhile ago, talking about the horrendous work life balance and how taxing it is on one's health for those in the FOs (M&A, equity sales, trading, etc). Few of my friends who are working as a neighbourhood branch RM in DBS started sharing the article, describing it as though the article is referring to them ....
I cringed when I saw their posts...Apparently to them, running weekend roadshows selling UTs / insurance is the same as the big boys preparing to pitch a multimillion deal.
I am too polite to highlight the differences to them on the article..
