LinkedIn is nothing more than the "professional" version of South Park's "smelling your own farts" episode.

99% of the people who are LinkedIn rockstars are worthless in real life.

quote:

There are basically two types of people. People who accomplish things, and people who claim to have accomplished things. The first group is less crowded.

-- Mark Twain



LinkedIn is the second group.

LI used to be value added, but not it is Facebook Jr.

No LinkedIn & no FB. This website is as closest to the fire I get except a burner account on Twitter used exclusively for trolling.

I only have a LinkedIn because my company has a LinkedIn learning subscription. They actually some good training stuff on there.

Most of the people I actually know on there who are active posters seem to be balls to the wall gung ho about their job…then they’ll seem to jump to another job a year later to repeat the process. They are like this in their personal lives as well…always seem to be busy and doing a ton, but never really accomplishing anything.

I thought LinkedIn was just a place to put a resume and look for jobs.

Is it like social media now?

It's pretty much FB now. Full of people trying to one up each other with motivational quotes.

I’m always interested in people on LinkedIn that post or comment on opinionated, political shite.


It’s not smart. My wife has a colleague who is way into conspiracies, about the election and otherwise. I know first hand this lady has been passed over for job opps and promotions cause she comes across as nutty. Despite being a good employee otherwise.

I have been getting a lot of young Asian women wanting to link but they have zero connection to the industry I work in. I figure it is some fat dude in Nigeria that wants to rip me off.
