I've come to dislike LinkedIn. It's like a perpetual class reunion.

Bunch of people you used to know, waving around their electronic cocks and bragging about their new promotion or how much they earn. The whole premise to the site is that you are your CV - that you're defined by your job title.

You're not a person, with ideas, interests, relationships and feelings. You're a Managing Director, or Burger Boy. That's your entire purpose in life. It's just another continuation of the modern trend to shoehorn people's entire existence into a job that they do. YOU ARE YOUR JOB. YOU ARE YOUR JOB.

It's like some kind of mass patronisation tool.

Oh, and that's before I even get started on the recruiters. The slimy, lying weasels who act like your mate so they can sell you off like a chunk of meat. Meat that can type.
