workaday Wednesday
Jan. 25th, 2023 06:53 amAPPARENTLY I am missing a lot of workplace drama by not being on linkedin. I've avoided being on the site for years and years, because mostly I would prefer not to be perceived? But yesterday one of my coworkers let me know that a former employee posted something that was PRETTY CLEARLY a callout of the company, and several other former employees had commented on it.
None of which made me want to join the site, but all of which made me curious about the site's value overall. I'm terrible at networking and prefer to avoid it whenever possible (hahaha those things are not unconnected), but I grudgingly accept it is the only way I got hired at any of my jobs. (Maybe not one of them; it's hard to say.)
There is no conclusion. Just a wondering of what people will think of sites like that when they look back in 20 or 50 years.
