So the admin for this group are from Southampton.
Perhaps they were initially looking for lebensraum
Gonna have to watch for infiltration of my local FB dog walking group.

Sometimes I wish you would use simpler words and explain things a little more. Not in really long paragraphs though as I have quite a short attention span these days. Also didnāt do 19th Century history in depth. It was all Classics and Tudors for me.
You had to live through itā¦it was compex.

Iāve put the wrong blooming century too. Ah well my archaeologist parents will be proud.

Lebensraum was what Nazi Germany wanted, it roughly translates to Living Room, but not your front roomā¦
Thanks. Maybe one day I will read up on that part of history. Both my grandfatherās were involved in the 2nd world war and one was a prisoner of war and Iāve not really done any of that part of history.
Alexa. Define Irony:
Have we done LinkedIn yet?
There are a lot of self-promoting over-compensating twats like myself there, all saying something vaguely positive about their work place life.
I also quite like it because in general, the chances of having a nice, non-confrontational discussion are much higher.
But then there is the ocean of recruiters, either trying to hire me or get me to hire someone. They are nice in the moment, but most of them are fucking goldfish, have done the exact opposite of what theyāve said theyāve done. e.g not read your CV, and are offering you work more suitable for a wet-behind-the-ears junior.
I also donāt like the way the whole enterprise is crippleware, and they basically charge a premium fee if you want to see who is stalking you or you really want to ānetworkā
So I think I want it destroyed. I have a plan.
- Everyone creates a jarg LinkedIn profile. Weāll also set up a few firms etc, so folks will have some work to do.
- Each person convinces a mischievous friend to do the same. Weāve all got one. Donāt pretend itāll be hard.
- Weāll lay low for a bit, but contributing to the overall vibe. Perhaps a bit odd. Some of your profile visitors might well wonder how your advertised chocolate teapot business is viable.
- After a hilarious campaign of rising mirth, increasingly preposterous professional proclamation, a panoply of businesses that seem to be based on recent comedy shows.
Itās starts with a nod and a wink today. It could end up with investors seriously putting money into this sort of thing.
Whoās with me? Itāll be epic.

Linked in is broken
Like you said it is infested by my brethren- tbf it is one of the only places you can advertise you cv without your boss getting the hump. It is the worlds biggest cv library.
Now they sell us access Ā£200 pm gets you the ability to search the entire database regardless of connections
My other gripe is that people use it like Facebook so you have to Wade through oceans of shite
Some bloke I knew from when I was travelling stalked me in LinkedIn so i deleted it ages ago.
Just not sure in my line of work it is necessarily about networking either so found it a bit pointless.
So agreed. Bin it.
Its for a shower of cunts who want more dough but canāt get it.
You mean the employed, sir? 
I reckon mine is a fair enough review. I probably missed the part that itās probably as big a virtue signaller, if not more, than Twitter.
Itās just happening on a corporate scale.
Load of wank for people who donāt want to look in the yellow pages and Thursday nights echo, also totally overreaching in their achievements.
