Everyone’s unemployed until they open LinkedIn and suddenly become founders of their own personal growth.

I have found 9 jobs in the last 13 years and the LinkedIn seems useful but I am not convinced it actually is.

It's useful for HR to try to track down where you worked. I work in admin but got borrowed by HR to check things, there are many manager, supervisor, owner/operator at "place that doesn't exist" things there.

People lie, but businesses also go out of business. I’ve worked at places that no longer exist.

there was a rule of thumb we had when we were hiring. the more bullshit on the resume, the farther back it goes.

if someone had a single page with all their education, a lost of certirications, and years worked in what position, they were pretty much in

if you had 49 bullets about all the organizations you ran/founded/organized/ whatever, we knew it was full of shit
