15 LinkedIn Lunatics Who Are Wildly Out Of Touch

It's pretty common knowledge that the internet is full of very insane people. Some social media sites are more prone to harboring these insane people and all of their ideas. Some are just more personal than others and it attracts the crazy. There is a site though that wouldn't be expected to have so many insane people on it, LinkedIn. LinkedIn is a site for professionals to connect, so the people on it should probably be professional.

With the rise of the hustle culture and alpha males though people have become more and more engulfed in their work and their success. This idea gives rise to people sharing their most unhinged takes when it comes to work and work-life balance. Reddit's /r/LinkedInLunatics is a place that captures all of these crazy takes and shares them with all to shame these out-of-touch creators. Here are 15 hot takes from certified LinkedIn Lunatics.

Eh

Clark Valberg 2nd Managing Partner @ Tiferes Ventures, Founder & Bo... 2h Edited Apple Vision Pro hot take... + Follow You will buy one-sooner than you think. Once "regular folks" (those living outside of SF) socially habituate beyond the self- consciousness of wearing one all day in public (this will happen VERY fast β€” 6 months, likely less), the dynamic integration of the physical and digital world into a new "synthetic reality" will have an exponential impact on many of the standards underpinning daily experience - presence, connectivity, entertainment, productivity, etc. Those who own one will in many ways have a fundamentally different "user experience" of daily life. IMO this "chasm of common experience" has the potential for catalyzing a phenomenally sharp adoption curve far beyond what analysts and industry pundits predict. Creating transcendent user experience has always been Apple's flywheel. COO 27 19 comments

He Had to Adapt

(1) Otep Manzanero β€’ 1st SA Head, Retail Banking 3h. New job, new role, and a new routine to the office. New routine meant I took up walking 1.7km to work. Yesterday, I had a shoe mishap halfway through my morning walk, no open shops at 7AM so I kept walking with a positive attitude and a slower pace, reminding myself of past projects where unexpected hurdles popped up. Just like then, I knew I had to adapt and find a way. With determination and a can-do attitude, I reached my destination and made it to the office on time. It reminded me of the importance of resilience in both work and life – obstacles may slow us down, but the right attitude won't stop us from delivering on our promises 14 755534

Hmmm

Aaron H.. 3rd+ Senior Recruiter @ Tesla 1d ● If you receive a message from a recruiter that says "Hi {Candidate Name}", Don't flip out. The recruiter cares about your name and they didn't type that on purpose. +Follow Their automation tool failed and they likely do not know that it has failed. Here is a proper response: "Hey Recruiter, thanks for the message. I'd love to learn more about the position. Looking forward to speaking with you. As a heads up, your message says 'Hi Candidate Name,' instead of my name." Technology is amazing, but it's not perfect. Let's give some slack. #AARonThoughts #hiring #recruitment #candidateexperience 20 2,043 212 comments β€’ 26 reposts

No Way

The Idea Junkie @jerrydoubles An employer invited six people for an interview by 7:00AM, they were all dressed and sharp before the time. He told them to wait. By 3:00PM, 3 had left. By 6:00PM, he came and met only 2. They got the job. That was the interview. Test of PATIENCE.
