Yes … I know I am the last person to talk about professionalism.
And yes … I know Linkedin is kind-of an easy target, but some of the stuff people are putting on there these days blows my mind.
If I was an alien and looking at the site for insight on humans, I’d come to the conclusion there’s 2 types out there, the egomaniacs and the totally lacking in confidence.
Have a look at this …
What?
WHAT?
If it was some kind of psychological experiment, you could just about put up with it – but it doesn’t seem to be. It literally appears a guy called Jason [In a moment of compassion, I’ve deleted some of his info to protect what little honour he has left] wants to crowd source how he should style his facial hair.
And if that wasn’t depressing enough, he’s received over 5000 comments for it.
FIVE THOUSAND.
Seriously, what the hell?
It’s so depressing that I hope he’s only doing this so he could find gullible fools to sell some shit product too.
Honestly, what next …
What tie should you wear to work?
What breakfast should you eat?
What condom should you wear?
On the bright side, if this is the standard of professionalism these days, then it just might mean I am no longer at the bottom of the table.
Sure, I might still be in the relegation places, but no longer at the bottom.
Thanks Linkedin.
