Do I really even want to know what LinkedIn games are?

[–] Akagigahara@lemmy.world 39 points 1 month ago

They are just Browser minigames. Nothing too Fancy, out there. Just pretentious, as is the norm for linkedin

[–] fckreddit@lemmy.ml 45 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Of course, she's a consultant.

[–] bobo1900@startrek.website 39 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Not only a regular consultant, but a "solutions-based" one. As opposed to another kind of consultant?

[–] fckreddit@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 month ago (3 children)

So a "problems-oriented" consultant?

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's more successful than "invoice-based".

[–] fckreddit@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Every consultant is "invoice-oriented". Some are more than just invoice-oriented.

"Invent problems by your own so you can sell a solution"

[–] EnsignWashout@startrek.website 3 points 1 month ago

I'm a problems-oriented consultant. Whatever your problem is, I can help you split it into two barely smaller problems.

What I really need to know though is does she leverage her experience and talents to find me the best solutions

[–] Darkenfolk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Hey, sometimes I just want you to listen to me talking about this huge fucking dumpster fire I got going on.

Can we just take a moment looking at the artistic chaos of it all, without all your pesky "solutions"?

Imagine wasting your time on linkedin games

[–] massive_bereavement@fedia.io 10 points 1 month ago

Isn't Linkedin games an oxymoron?

[–] monogram@feddit.nl 10 points 1 month ago

Needs more hashtags!!!

I think I'd die if I still worked a corporate job.

[–] Mediocre_chad@piefed.social 9 points 1 month ago

"Survival of the fittest" really does require the most mental and emotional gymnastics to maintain the "wish I were" "wanna be" "matter more" paradigm.

This isn't too bad. Just tips on how to use a product more effectively? Just a bit cringe that people are playing "LinkedIn Games"

[–] bumblefumble@mander.xyz 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

To be honest I'm playing LinkedIn games - I like when number go up. My issue is coming with some made up overanalysis to how it defines you as a worker, wrote up in some extremely annoying, verbose post. I guess I just hate how so many people on LinkedIn write long posts with basically no substance because they need to be seen by the algorithm.

But no, compared to straight up deranged people this isn't so bad. More a hate the game, not the player type situation.

[–] fluckx@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Linkedin has games?

[–] airbussy@lemmy.one 8 points 1 month ago

I wonder who would be in need of a "Notion Consultant"

[–] QuizzaciousOtter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Does posting this kind of nonsense actually work? Are there people who read this? Does this land them better jobs, clients? I can't comprehend engaging in braindead bullshit like this...

[–] bumblefumble@mander.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

Official linked in game account commented, so yes, it gives you reach in the algorithm.

I like to look up the companies in their tag lines. Notion - "The AI workspace that works for for you"

I've got the notion that she's just another AI dickhead. Sry, 'expert'.

[–] superduperpirate@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

The only way to win this shit is to not play

[–] Ribbons@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah I totally get it, my brain moves like a Queen. (In eight directions)
