I work at a bank and am the "stop payment queen" and the "ach queen", now I am training the princess to come dethrone me since I have other duties now and don't want to the the main girl for those questions. LOL

I think the lady was just full of herself. Master Quilter title is a very very short list of names. I do agree with the MRS. degree! I stressed and worked hard for a degree and never found a job that was better then getting married and staying home and doing what I wanted to do. To me a degree meant a better paying job, not a personal achievement or goal.
