As previously stated, LinkedIn is basically the Instagram of grown-ups, also known as 'The place where insecure people go to brag about their miserable existence'. You know those Facebook groups where people show off pics of them graduating with honors from some Ivy League school that you have no idea how they got accepted into, with captions such as 'I am SO proud to announce that I have humbly graduated from XYZ with HONORS. This has been the most inspiring, eye-opening, and spiritual experience of my life, and I am so grateful to the Dean and her daughter, who have been such a big influence on me… bla bla… bla bla bla…' ? So it's like that.
You can't disguise 'Stupid' as 'Not stupid'. It's simply not possible. So to sum it all up, I can't stand LinkedIn, and if you clicked on this post, the bets are out that you don't either. Sure, it's a great way to expand your social and professional network, find a job, and develop your career… yada yada… but it's also the perfect platform to read about others announcing how much better they are than you. There is no shortage of idiots on LinkedIn, and the fact of the matter is, it's kinda entertaining.
So without further ado, scroll down and check out some of the most embarrassing, cringeworthy snapshots I've scavenged on r/linkedinlunatics, because it sure made my day. Then, you can also feel free to take a look at what Reddit has to say about Gen Z leaving big gaps in their resumes in the name of self-care.
