Truly the Ken M of LinkedIn

Thank goodness, I was hoping this was satire.

[–] nick@midwest.social 1 points 1 month ago

Oh yeah, Ken fools a lot of people. He’s maybe even inspired the actual lunatics, wouldn’t be shocked.

It hit me when he said 5 of my friends with MBAs, and there's only 3 of them.

For people who don't know Ken Cheng is satire and making fun of LinkedIn people.

He is hilarious, and the comments he incites are even better.

Ken Cheng is a British comedian. He likes to take the piss out of business people. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Cheng

I was about to say, this guy is glazing MBA's way too hard for this not to be a joke.

I’ve never met anyone with an MBA who wasn’t a moron.

[–] Fermion@feddit.nl 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe the non-morons don't make a point of telling you they have an MBA.

Yep. I know a few people who got their workplace to pay for it. It was an incredibly easy way for them to pad their resume and ensure higher pay ranges at stupid workplaces that gated stuff like that.

Only came up when we were talking about schooling (I was still finishing mine).

Everyone that made a big deal of it though, complete morons.

May not be working at Lowe's much longer, but they make a point that a piece of paper isn't a big deal. I think it's the CFO that doesn't have a degree?

Anyway, CEO is proud to say that a diploma on the wall isn't a free ride. Busted my ass there for 3-months, got a promotion in the bag tomorrow. OTOH, just got a surprise interview for a tech job that pays 3x more. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Win either way!

HAHAHAHA this is peak satire

This guy spent the whole date creticing the restaurant we were in. Not once did he mention that satern was visible, or that the JWSt is scanning the Orion cluster looking for new young planets. Brought up the moon and he mentioned mineing rights and opertinitys to Frack the moon. Only thing he was exited about space was Elon and his polluting starlink WiFi adapters that have destroyed the night sky.

Dude, you gotta fix your autocorrect, or at least set it up.

[–] Gold_E_Lox@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

lol i specifically turn off my auto correct

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Why? In my experience, it corrects more often than it fucks up, so if you stopped using it because you don't like the one mistake it makes every 100 words or so, you should probably reevaluate your decision.

And if your keyboard app is making more mistakes than it corrects, you might want to consider trying a different keyboard app.
