Junk Mail from LinkedIn
So when I wandered over to LinkedIn to check on events in mates and friends land, this little personalised message appeared from the good – and I use that term very loosely – people at Raytheon.
Very apt and well-targeted (excuse the pun) marketing. I’ll rush right out and pony up a few million for one of these protective rockets.
Dickheads.
Looks like a useful object. something to use everyday.

Sounds like something from a futuristic science fiction satire, doesn’t it?
That bloody LinkedIn is a pain in the arse, like Facebook for job seekers.

Yeah, I’ve found LinkedIn to be uniquely unsuccessful at springing workable jobs. Compared with Seek, LinkedIn is retarded – meaning that the same jobs appearing on LinkedIn have already had a million applicants by the time they show up on LinkedIn.
And then there are the same old bogus CV fishing attempts week after week after week.
Disappointing ? You Bet ! Take out a $29 per month premium account that sends Emails about week or month old profile views ? No thanks !

I closed my account. I will probably never look for another job, but kept getting requests from strabge folk wanting to join my network. The nurses I know who are only LinkedIn are right counts.
