I agree with the commenter cited.  She is a jackass.  Probably a Timmayite.
:huh: I don't see how she exhibits any Timmayite tendencies.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

No, it's specific to somebody trying to do PR/marketing for the company through Facebook/twitter/tumblr/etc.

Jos can't understand those words.

Isn't social media manager one of those job titles they give to someone when they want to promote them/make them feel special but don't have an actual new position for them?

No.

A social media manager is a hybrid between customer service and PR, done through various social media outlets. They're responsible for responding to feedback emails, maintaining the product facebook page, twitter account and so on, as well as being active on any related fora if appropriate.

It's a tough job because customers are usually total assholes.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

The title still seems new enough that I added "Web Content Manager / Social Media Lead" on my resume as one of my extra responsibilities under a previous job.

I know what it is (I even applied for some jobs related to it), I was poking fun at it for being a silly position. :contract:
