LinkedIn - Bellend, Motivated or something else?



I’ve realised LinkedIn is increasingly full of bellends. It’s getting like Instagram.

Particular fan of the highly emotional/personal info people now seem to want to share

Which they then try to apply a work related spin by adding some motivational comment at the end

This is the best post on linkedin. from one of our local energy brokers.

I read that thread when it came out. Loads of moral outrage from the Sales community and his gaffer ended up wading in and claiming it didn’t represent their corporate culture iirc

It’s always just been recruitment agencies fishing for new contacts for me. Over the years, they’ve mostly changed their job titles to ‘career performance executives’ or some such horseshit now 😁

Theres a lot of contract work and project work in my field so agencies have always been reasonably ingrained. Recently though, a lot of them though seem to have an inflated sense of their roles and have started hosting ‘women in tech’ podcasts or presenting Seminars on Agile project management. I don’t begrudge them trying to build new business but it seems like they’re passing themselves off as technical experts rather than recruiting specialists
 
I’d had no exposure to it till I started working for a start up in the summer, they are keen to use it but not for shite like that, they promote the business and what’s going on etc but if they asked me to post anything like that I wouldn’t be able to, life is to short for my mates to find something that and torture me till I’m dead for it, which I’d absolutely deserve!

My friend was recently told she had to join by her boss. Then she had to add her friends so her company had potential leads. She apologised to me in advance.

Show me someone who shouldn't have trusted that fart

You can actually see the fear and regret in his eyes
