Here’s a quick question for you, Pandas: how many of you have an account on LinkedIn? With 830 million members in over 200 countries, LI is an utterly massive online professional network. Though ‘professional’ might be a bit of a misnomer. As anyone who has spent time on the network knows, things can get pretty darn ridiculous sometimes.

Posts about completely made-up situations. Posts so full to the brim with bragging that they make you gag. Posts that exaggerate the positive qualities of the author, as well as those of their company. And posts about how CEOs acted like total jerks but tried to pretend they were super deep and professional (and totally don’t have control and/or greed issues). The cringe is real. And it all ends up on the ‘The Best of LinkedIn’ Twitter page.

Run by JR Hickey, from California, the account shows the side of LinkedIn that many would prefer would remain hidden. He gently makes fun of all the “heroes and influencers brave enough to share their stories in an effort to inspire others.” Scroll down for his best featured posts, upvote your fave ones, and tell us all about the most bizarre things you’ve stumbled upon on LI yourselves, dear Pandas.

Bored Panda got in touch with JR, the founder of the entire project on Twitter, and he was kind enough to answer our questions. He told us about the history of 'The Best of LinkedIn' and shared his thoughts about the culture of the platform and its problems. He didn't beat around the bush and was brutally honest about just how ridiculous 'LinkedInfluencers' are and how they react to his content. You'll find his thoughts below.

I don't have kids but the other 2 YES! Some didn't have the ability to stay home and not work. I was worked in my office then from home/her home the last bit since my boss was set to retire (lawyer). Courts didn't shut down just did hearings via zoom. I didn't work at my current job but they only had two days off to figure out how to work in the office w/o contact (accounting/tax prep).

JR shared the history of 'The Best of LinkedIn' account on Twitter with us. "Back in 2018, I was an Account Executive for a SaaS company in San Francisco. I had a boss who was a dinosaur—his idea of a good follow-up to a meeting was mailing laminated copies of the deck we presented to the prospect after the fact. The phrase, 'Stop by Kinko's' was uttered a few times in my short tenure there (Kinko's was dropped by FedEx in 2008, ten years prior)."

A large part of JR's job at the time was cold calling on LinkedIn. "I was already dissatisfied with my role, my career, and the company, so spending a few hours a day on LinkedIn just about pushed me over the edge," he was very candid. "I began seeing the first inklings of these so-called 'LinkedInfluencers' and started screenshotting their posts and sharing them on my personal Twitter account. Once those gained traction, I decided to create a dedicated Twitter account for it, and thus, @BestOfLinkedin was born."

Bored Panda was curious how JR would describe the professional network's culture. He told us that 'toxic' gets thrown around too often lately. "I would say the best way to describe LinkedIn's culture is 'downright demented.' It's just a giant back-patting circle/echo chamber where people aren't even telling a version of the truth anymore," he stressed that the amount of fiction on LI is utterly absurd these days.

    Guess I’m old. My dad took me to the bank and opened a savings account for me when I was about 5 or 6. I didn’t have to do any convincing, But, boy was I proud of having my very own pass book & when I got to go to the bank and present it to the teller along with the proceeds from my piggy bank to make a deposit made me feel very grown up, indeed.. Banking today is far more convenient, but it’s kind of a shame kids don’t get to experience that sort of thing anymore is kind of a shame.

    "It's unoriginal sellouts who regurgitate corporate buzzwords and stories of incredible business acumen in an effort to game the LinkedIn algorithm and try to hide the fact that there isn't a single thing that's interesting about them. And nobody will call them out, for fear of losing their job or it blowing back on them professionally. The entire platform lacks accountability, which is insane because its intention initially was to be just that," JR pointed out that very few people are willing to put their careers on the line for the sake of calling out downright lies.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    That's not to say that LinkedIn doesn't have its upsides. The founder of 'The Best of LinkedIn' said that the professional network is a "terrific place to read business news, as well as to find jobs, recruit talent, and network with people in your industry.

    "It's a valuable business development tool but sadly it's been watered down by these self-proclaimed 'Linkedinfluencers' and their BS success stories. LinkedIn could improve the user experience drastically by focusing on moderating these posts and suppressing them when they don't offer anything valuable," he suggested how the platform could change for the better.

She is basically telling women, "You and your natural face are not enough! You MUST smear this oil-based face paint on your lips to be employable." How disgusting, especially coming from a woman.

    "If the only reason you're posting on LinkedIn is to show off a picture of yourself with a story about how you were called 'too pretty' to be in business then your post will be taken down. If you aren't sharing anything educational or valuable, and instead are attributing incredible management advice from your FIVE YEAR OLD, your account will be banned. Sadly, I wish this was an easy fix, but LinkedIn has replicated every other social media platform and become another runaway train of trash," he said that he's not holding on to much hope that LI will improve in the future.

    "LinkedInfluencers, for how much 'expertise' they have, have some of the thinnest skins on the Internet. Because they 'create' their content strictly for LinkedIn, where nobody criticizes or calls them out, they lose their minds when an account like @BestOfLinkedin does. Personally, I've created content for over a decade now in the forms of comedy, podcasting videos, and articles," JR told Bored Panda.

    "When you create anything for the Internet, there's going to be 50% or more people who hate it. So you have to know that criticism comes with the territory. But when a LinkedInfluencer sees me poke fun at them for @BestofLinkedin? Oftentimes they don't know what to do with themselves. Usually, they'll try to doxx me or get me fired. Good luck, I'm a freelance Creative Director and don't have a boss. I get paid to write things for social media and more. So yeah, I'm doing exactly what I'm supposed to. If you don't like what's being said about you on the Internet, the proper response isn't to take your ball and run home. Or worse, take your ball and run and tell your parents."

    JR’s ‘The Best of LinkedIn’ social media project is a great archive showing how even the most seasoned professionals can feel insecure about themselves. It’s a slippery slope when you start making up stories for clicks.

    Don’t even get us started on how ridiculous it is to try and motivate people while humble-bragging in between the lines. Look, nobody says that LinkedIn has to be super serious all the time (we actually rather enjoy some of the fun, quirky, and artistic posts that fly across our feeds from time to time), however, it’s downright embarrassing when industry veterans go all out and think they’re the next big ‘self-help’ guru.

    Now, that’s not to say that motivation and finding joy within and beyond the rat race aren’t important (they are!), but it all really comes down to how you try and motivate people. Copying someone else’s post, borrowing someone else’s ideas with a few small tweaks, downright faking entire experiences just so you have something to feed your followers doesn’t reflect well on you.

    It speaks less about you as a ‘leader’ and more about your insecurities and desire for attention. If you’re feeling creatively bankrupt, it’s perfectly fine to take some time off: get off social media. Take a break. Fight that burnout! It’s way better than flooding LinkedIn with trite stories and ‘inspirational’ stories that make people’s eyes roll. And yes, we might be low-key judging anyone who writes, “So true!!!” in the comments.

    If you genuinely enjoy a post, good for you. But like it or not, there’s just way too much pretense online. Especially on LinkedIn where you pretty much are what you say you are.

    LinkedIn does have its upsides, though. When you make an account and polish up your profile, you’re putting yourself out there for recruiters to see. You become far more visible. You can find jobs that you like way more easily. And (probably best of all) you can actually connect with professionals from all around the world.

Of course, there are some pros who would ignore or even look down on someone asking for advice, but hey, those are the rules of social networks, right

    You’re bound to get some jerks in every community. In our experience, the vast majority of people using LinkedIn have been phenomenal and super friendly. Then again, we haven’t chatted with many folks who thrive on bragging.

The customers who asked were usually perfectly healthy-looking, normal-ish-weight 30-year-old women. (We had a huge detox/cleanse section, sadly.) Yes, drinking liquified bentonite clay is totally going to solve all your problems.

    Total BS! We have kidneys and a liver, which make cleansing / detoxing totally unnecessary. Eating and drinking healthily will obviously be good for. Unfortunately these cleanse/detox regimes are often quite unhealthy, with either too much sugar or too small a variety of nutrients.

    Career coach Jermaine Murray, from JupiterHR, previously told Bored Panda that ‘turbo-charging’ your LinkedIn profile can lead to greater visibility and success. In his opinion, first impressions matter. However, they might not be overly long-lasting. That means that if you make a mistake on your LI profile, it’s not the end of the world: you can recover from this.

Like did this guy have his wife or whoever write this out, write it himself but changed up the handwriting or make poor Sofie write what he told her to? People like this are actually out there, walking around, living amongst us and you wouldn't even know it. This world is a crazy place

    From the career coach’s perspective, LinkedIn is a “super powerful and useful tool for surfacing and connecting” with other people. LI can handle most of your professional needs. However, interactions elsewhere, on the net and in real-life, can also be useful for your career.

    “I’ve found LinkedIn to be more effective after I’ve built rapport with people on a different platform (like Twitter) or at a networking event (pre-Covid), as it’s a great way to stay in touch,” the career expert said.

    So the restaurant was "...watching them in dead silence," and shortly after that, "The restaurant went silent"? Why am I searching for logic in this??

    What kind of parent allows their 10-year-old to “repair small engines” and take apart an entire lawnmower by themselves? When I was 10 my dad would let me hold the tools and hand them to him and that’s about it XD He taught me how to do a lot of repairs (car engines mostly) but didn’t want me touching the dangerous stuff or gasoline by myself… at least not when I was 10!

    According to Jermaine, people usually don’t give themselves enough credit for their skills. They need to be less modest about themselves and the value that they bring.

    “When I have sessions with clients, the first exercise we do is a Success/Failure log where they can beat their chest a bit but also dissect and really understand that ‘failure’ because, more often than not, that Failure can actually lead to a win/success further down the line,” he shared.

    Hahaha this is RAMPANT on FB AND IG right now too. Almost always a surgeon, recently it's orthopedic surgeons, they are almost traveling oversea doing volunteer work WITH kids in tow, and are widowed or horrible divorce. They want to "spend the time to get to know you better" and spend an enormous amount of time trying to woo you. When the reality is they are probably part of the Nigerian/African scammers and will either eventually ask for money (bitcoin usually bc there's no way to get that back) or some other financial help. I get a lot of them, and try to keep them on the hook for a long as possible or until I get bored bc its one less other person they can scam out of money. It's men and women as well. I always report them too obviously but they just recycle to a new profile. I'm not on ANY dating sites they just target the messaging aspects of social media.

    considering how condescending jokes like that feel, and how tiring they are when a million customers before you have repeated them, i would definitely say so. very obvious justin has never worked retail a day in his life if he thinks niceties aren't purely bc we aren't allowed to batter customers over the head for taking up valuable time during rush hours like he was in, trying out his stand up comedy. he's also clearly never interacted w a woman before, if he thinks tired, boring one liners from men make us drop our panties and throw out pumpkin loaves. like we don't deliberately avoid giving any positive reception in case it's misread and we now have a stalking harasser screaming that the pumpkin loaf was an invitation into our bed and we're playing games

    The Starbucks server didn't smile or laugh. She's heard that lame a*s joke and the other 150 just like it, and probably considered murder/suicide before sighing and going into work mode.

    There is no way an overworked Starbucks barista laughed at THAT joke during morning rush. Even if I kept a positive outlook during the shift, the most you would get out of me would be a polite chuckle. I'm skeptical about the free stuff, too. Is that really enough to warrant freebies? I wouldn't think so. I'm sorry, but that's what I think. And I'm NOT the type of person who would spit in a drink/plate, no matter how bad the customer was... But it's darkly fun to think about.

    They make it sound like it's not attached to the body. Once I've seen them put the uterus through the incision to check that there hasn't been any ruptures or tears, but yes, normally they don't pull it out. It reminded me of the head of an octopus.

    Hahaha! I would like to see pictures of that lunch. How do you plan to eat your corn on the cob? Will you go with the classic row by row "Typewriter" style? Maybe you're more of a circle around and around "Column" style type of person. Or, perhaps you like to go for it with "Freestyle" chomping random bites just anywhere? I myself would be in the most lame category of corn on the cob eaters, which is "Toddler" style, where you (or your mom) stand the ear of corn on end and slice the kernels off onto a plate to eat with a fork (or fingers).

    9-year-old probably DID ask why her brother felt offended, but her actual sentence was “I want to know how I offended you so I can do it over and over again!” No 9-year-old says something like Erica posted, unless it’s in a sarcastic, snotty voice. I was 9 once. I have a sibling. I know what reality is.

    Ok, I get the general idea here: "Hey, since the gov pays you, why don't you come to work for me for free?" Still, using that free time to gain experience isn't such a bad idea. It might be useful once the checks runs out. But then again, that means bosses are willing to get your services for free, but NOT if they have to put you on payroll.

    Does Josh really think customers want retail workers to make comments on their likes and preferences, instead of just answering their question of “Do you have x item in stock?” Customer wants to GTFO so they can hit the next store to see if THEY have the item in stock, not discuss their love for said item.

    That ... isn't right. Only people who care about your GPA when graduating (and how long it took) are those in admissions for grad school and for some positions in academia. I also had a GPA like that for my undergrad but got hired at a major airline because they saw I had discipline to finish a degree (I asked). Now I'm starting a PhD program after going back to get my masters, and lemme tell you, they definitely look at gpa (my master's GPA is much higher than undergrad)

    Even his profile picture looks smug. Also: how is driving a Tesla a “flex” these days? They’re not a new brand any more or even really one of those “omg you drive a TESLA?? How COOL!” car brands. Hell, my 46-year-old still-lives-at-home virgin sister has a Tesla. (I have a 20-year-old Volkswagen van. /flex)

    You can't teach psychopathy or sociopathy, Matt. Besides, that's not quite how it works. There is ZERO fear, no voice inside saying we can't do it, the voice is saying 'How do I do it without getting caught'. Once it's done the voice changes to 'Do it again, do it again!', only this time it wasn't as thrilling, so we end up chasing that high, often taking higher risks or pushing the boundaries to make it more exciting. In our single mindedness our world starts to crumble until we either gain control and fight the addiction or fail in a dramatic fashion and destroy ourselves, either way, our habit will end.
