LinkedIn has been the Facebook you can us at work for a while

So we agree it was already garbage! Lol

Honestly I don't even get it, I have a LinkedIn account that I have updated twice (only when getting ready to change jobs)

I only keep it because I have heard more than once that " an IT person without a LinkedIn profile is a red flag" which I find completely idiotic but the world we live in is idiotic

As far as I know, none of the job offers I have received have actually been affected in anyway due to my LinkedIn profile... It has only served to get spam and lame short term contract offers (like I'm leaving my full time job for a 1 year "exiting" contract)
