Semantics

AOL reports that FEMA head Michael Brown is being "recalled to Washington" and part of the concern is that he padded his resume.
Allow me top summarize the best part:
The article states that Brown's official biography on the FEMA Web site says that his background in state and local government also includes serving as "an assistant city manager with emergency services oversight" and as a city councilman.

However...

Former mayor of Edmond, Randel Shadid, told The Associated Press on Friday that Brown had been an assistant to the city manager. Shadid said Brown was never assistant city manager.

Sound familiar?

Gareth: I'm assistant regional manager.
David Brent: Assistant to the regional manager.

"The Office" as real life!!
