LinkedIn has officially gone off the rails, turning into a goldmine of corporate cringe, toxic hustle culture, and oversharing personal drama disguised as 'business wisdom.' CEOs are testing employees by messaging them on weekends, people are posting tragic car crash stories to make business metaphors, and the humblebrags are out of control. If you thought LinkedIn was for networking, think again-it's basically a mix of bad advice, awkward posts, and unintentional comedy. Let’s dive in and roast the madness!

I would love to see you dig into the return to work for Federal workers. As I am one and I know the real reason we have to go back. Most people don't know or realise that most Federal buildings are rented/leased They are not actually owned by the government. Not only that, but people think we are lazy and that's why we need to go back. Everything gets recorded and reported to upper managers almost everywhere in the government. So if someone is not doing their job people know about it. They are punishing all of us remote workers even though we get our jobs done on time. Like you said in some of your videos that I tell people "Work is a task not a place for most jobs" I can do my job and have been remotely. I say those who are not doing their jobs make them come in don't punish everyone. I get more work done at home because I don't have to run to building to building for a dumb meeting I don't need to be in. Or have 20 people visit me daily at my desk interrupting me. Plus there are two types of organizations within the government those who get funds from congress aka taxpayers and those who make their own money aka franchise funds. My group makes our own money and we save taxpayers money on top of that. We have contracts that have due dates no matter what, so we can't just goof off and never do our work, it has to get done per our contracts. I feel like they are punishing us and we didn't even do anything bad. It should be a case by case.

[@Soulpunisher7]

Trying to reply to you again. I keep getting my comments deleted by youtube. You should looking into RTO for federal government workers. The real reason they want us back in the office is because they mostly rent/lease buildings. The government doesn't own most buildings they work in. So taxpayers are paying other rich people rent for government employees. I know I work for the government and it's not just buildings sometimes it's the land they are on too.

How to fix LinkedIn: Stop allowing people to post anything unless they meet a certain criteria. Charge people per word on every post. Charge extra for pictures, and triple that for selfies. Allow people to downvote posts. If a post hits a certain threshold for bad quality, the poster will be charged more per word until their quality improves. If they fail to improve, they'll be banned from posting. Topics like religion and politics should not be allowed. Users will be required to specify the topic of their posts (via categories) so that people can filter out what they're not interested in. Quality over quantity.

Request from me would be life update. If that feels alright with you. Obv I know sharing with the internet is dangerous. Rooting for you. Been watching you for 4 years now. With a bit of a break here and there. It seems like you're happy and content 🎉

[@zachroberts1988]

I wish they would just say they want to bring back company towns... They want to own every aspect of your life!

LinkedIn is a bloody joke right now. Literally 3 out of 4 posts are trash/noise

[@BeeRich33]

There's a lot of dirty laundry on Linkedin. It's really disgusting.

[@ex8722]

Everyone said i needed to be on linked in. Plus, some job sites require it. If i get another freaking request for someone hocking faux positivity to get me to link to them when all i want is to see job opportunities, I'll scream ..

The guy with the daughter who was in a car crash reminds me of MLM huns who swoop in when someone is going through a difficult situation, spewing fake condolences just so they can try to sell them snake oil.

I hate LinkedIn so much. If ever there was a “social” platform I wished would go away, it would be right up at the top of the list (only because I don’t use TikTok and was tweeter banned after years ago 😅)

"Every issue is our top priority." I wouldn't be the customer of a fool who doesn't know how language works. I prefer to talk to people who value accuracy in communication.

[@ajkulac9895]

Sounds like no issue is a priority. Why not just say so.

[@mattw8332]

Glad I don't have a LinkedIn account.

[@hebozhe]

I don't think you appreciate What you can do With a LinkedIn account. ... Balls.

[@UNMEASURED100]

Glad? I feel terrible for not having an account sooner.

[@DanielPoobalan]

Good for you. I prefer to connect with people face to face about job oppourtunities.

[@Motherofchicken]

And people wonder why I’m working on being a freelancer -_-

[@averdadeeumaso4003]

Yeah man self employed is the way

[@diegocamilopenaramirez6101]

Thank you for your work

[@barose1]

@5:40 Instead of turning his daughter’s accident into a teachable moment about not living to work, dealing with the panic and anxiety many feel when having to show up at work (on time), and how to slow down, I made it into an MLM-like pitch.

[@SoulfulVeg]

When I get a notification from LinkedIn and log in, I stay a while and marvel at how cringe it is. It's very entertaining.

[@gruby970]

It just dawned on me that i could comment subjects of EVERY Joshua's video with "peak cringe" and it'd be on point lol
