Every time I go on LinkedIn I can't help but wonder how these high fliers have so much time to chat utter fart all day on there yet still maintain such ace jobs. Or so they portray.

LinkedIn is a horrible mess of recruiters using it as a tool to make their jobs easier, and idiots posting "look at me, I'm ace, two years ago I was eating rats in a council house in Liverpool, now I've got a £22k job in the City" type stuff.

Oh and bullshit, meaningless motivational crap that only morons believe. The sort of thing footballers post.

£22k job in the City? Better off staying in Liverpool.

That's a terrible video. Far too much footage of the band,

LinkedIn is used a lot more in North America than the UK so I hear. It's a handy tool when done right, but it is getting worse. I hate the people (a lot of recruiters) that tell the story of how they did something small but changed someones life for forever with the inspirational message to take a chance of someone. It's complete BS. I would love to write 'didn't happen liar' but I know that potential employers do a search on you.

There is also the celebrating of Awards which have only been given out because the recipients sponsored the event the awards are handed out at.
The plethora of bollocks about what a great team they work with.
The stupid quotes on leadership.

Every school awards evening I've ever organised or been to fits that description, ChicagoL.
The kids, parents and staff all think it's great; and it is!
It's totally theirs and they all get recognised. No probs.
I play, 'Shine' by Aswad and it goes like a train.

I’ve seen them in concert 12 years ago. Good band. ‘Strasbourg’ was the stand out song.

Loizie no problem and sounds great, although I am not sure the every one gets a prize culture is something I agree with.I was talking about grown ups on LinkedIn who should no better.

I've had a few bookings from LinkedIn. And Anna Tabor from the club contacted me to quote for performing match days in the corporate areas. It didn't come off though,think I pitched too high ( although I only quoted what the blues paid me last year for our game )

But the " management" speak on LinkedIn generally either annoys me or makes me laugh, depending on its severity.
