Since IOL announced the exit from Calgary and reduction in presence in Canada, there seems to have been an uptick in cringe-worthy LinkedIn posts trying to make the company and themselves look better. I'm trying to decide which are the worst:
- The United Way committee cheerleaders who post about how inspiring the company's campaign is, and pretend that organizing a bake sale and haggling people for donations gives them corporate leadership experience. Meanwhile the company is abandoning Calgary.
- The Edmonton hopefuls who are posting about how excited they are to move to Edmonton for new career opportunities
- The business trip braggers who post about their Houston (or elsewhere) business trip and how inspired and motivated they are after spending time with their Exxon colleagues
- The Edmonton job promoters who repost the many job postings for vacancies in Edmonton, saying how it's an amazing opportunity
- The supplier golf tournament crowd posting about how some golf boondoggle is a great investment
What do you think is the most nauseating? What did I miss?
