Lets say you just earned your Phd in something

Do you start putting Dr on everything you sign, or everywhere you name is shown at work, even if your Phd had absolutely nothing to do with your job?

no, PhD is only to be used in a work or work-related context

It is about respect for the degree and the position it entails. It's not about calling yourself Dr in front of the soccer moms at the ballfield.

I have no idea what she plans on doing with a PhD at our company...especially in the position she is in. I guess put "Dr" in front of all her signatures in email.
And no, you don't want pictures.

I bet she has about 20 framed docs on her office wall

and probably copies of them on her wall at home where she "Zooms" from so everyone can enjoy her achievements.
Diplomas, certifications, citations, awards, 7th grade perfect attendence certificates......

I don't think she has ever even put RN behind her name unless she had to.
Now one of my good friends is a social worker. He's got all kinds of letters he can put behind his name. I don't know if he does or not but we joke about it sometimes.
I use PE behind my name anytime it is required by law but no other time.

I’m married to a nurse too, it’s when they get into administration that they become obsessed with all of the fake certifications

Hats off to all the RN's. The ones that push paper and are lovers of endless meetings short on any substance have the extra letters that CHST 15 describes.

I did not have what it takes to stick it out. I wanted a bigger paycheck than PhD students made. I was smart enough but did not want to put in the work necessary to earn the title.
