But if your peers are in the same category, how are you "senior" to them?

10 years good experience + a boatload of talent + rock-solid theoretical knowledge is my minimum bar to call yourself "senior".

I laugh when I see positions advertised with "senior" in the title that are only asking for 3 years experience. Around here, that's normal. Does this happen in other industries?
