Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

linkedin is unbearable

my whole feed is corporate kissing up, self-branding, and fake humility - omg everything is overboard for fu--s sake

“honored and humbled” has become the official language of humblebragging.

every post somehow thanks an “incredible team” while making sure everyone knows who the main character is.

and of course, no milestone is complete without pretending john doe personally changed your life...

Don’t forget these gems:

  • I have big news to share however I can’t elaborate right now. More to come.
  • After x number of years with company/industry I was laid off. I want to thank (fill in the blank) for their support and leadership during my time there. Oh, if your network has anything available, please let me know.

Ugh…

You need to watch Joshua Fluke on YouTube if you haven’t. His LinkedIn cringe videos and other corporate BS call-outs including a couple related to Stankey are pretty entertaining though a little depressing.

@c4 - Thanks Mom & Dad. Your advice is timeless.

You’re probably the one who posts and whines about those who complain about those who want to WFH.

Get a life and stop blaming others first your issues.

@c2 How profound you are…
You come to a platform called The Layoff and you don’t find the “bi--hing and moaning” to your liking. Guess what, easy solution, don’t come here.

Its all the new corporate phrases. It is the new way to self-promote. Pit your bug accomplishment out there, but make sure not to sound like you work hard for it.

The various biz media companies are afraid to be real critical of companies now because they know they won't get the interviews with the CEOs if they say something negative in advance of bad things happening.

Not a lot to post about when you’re a low IQ guy stringing wires.
