I am very silly I just realised i read the post at 1:09 wrong and he was actually talking about delivering it while in Barcelona and not on the plane, my bad, still a cringe post though
Haha oh George
You like kids
George your crimes have not been forgiven
@@sageghosts what
I was just about to scold you for this
"Everybody has to be there, nobody wants to be there" is really Linkedin summed up.
bot
Unless its these psychos making twits of themselves.
U also have the top comment on the aimsy vid I watched
Heya you again!
Stolen no doubt
Fucking hate linkedin. That's a site that needs to go permanently
Its main way of attracting new users seems to be having existing users invite everyone in their email contacts without knowing it. Nor consenting to it, obviously...
@@hazukichanx408probably did consent to it tho when logging in or signing up
The only thing it's good for is seeing how many of my Physics classmates went into consulting and other such wankery
This is an example of when 4chan and anonymous would be very handy
Facebook for Sigma Gtindset bros
i just interviewed 30 candidates and guess what? not a single one of them was accepted.
want to know why?
they all kept asking about 'safe working conditions', 'being able to leave the building', 'getting a salary' and 'not wanting to be whipped until their morale improves'. 🤦♀
job seekers: slave mas- i mean, interviewers don't like all these kinds of questions! it tells them what's important to you and whether or not you're a hard-working sla- i mean, 'committed hustler'.
Same here, they kept waffling about human rights and all sorts of other nonsense. Back in my day being whipped was a privilege, it proved you were a man of substance.
No joke, I've literally heard a manager in upper management say something along these lines before: "We want to be assured that our employees would be happy to work and provide for both their company's prosperity and their employer's comfort and lifestyle even if they haven't received pay in months or even years time. Sometimes we may even count on your own money to pay for some of the company's costs and mandatory training. It just means we can depend on you to be a subservient slav - I mean a dedicated, good-natured and hard working employee who's valuable to the company. We also don't like hearing employees unnecessarily complain about being mistreated, especially when the mistreatment is being done on low levels, or low levels as perceived by the company. We also value our employees mental and physical well being, that way they can still provide for us at their optimal level." Look, there is some truth that employees should be ready to resiliently and professionally handle some things, as well as prioritize some things in their workplace, especially when its a job working with the public or some sort of client, but to be treated or viewed as a near slave or even mildly abused shouldn't be the standard work life.
Meanwhile those of us looking for coworkers: pls just hire someone to help lighten our load already!!!!
@@jin394then they hire the one armed gimp who's no use to the Job, so they can click their new disability check list. 😅
Job:duel lifting items with weights from 25-50 kg 😂😂😂
I heard this too
LinkedIn is a goddamn hellhole when it comes to fake positivity. Everyone is trying to boast about "oh, I attended this awesome seminar", "I got to participate in this cool nation-wide project", "I enjoyed my time at company X, but immediately got hired at company Y, while rejecting company Z because it didn't fit my standards" or even worse "I will take a small break and figure out what kind of job I want next".
I'm jobless and actively applying for jobs, and I get mentally nauseous whenever I briefly have to log on just to provide my profile url for the next job search I do. People are so pretentious. F*CKING HIRE ME ALREADY, after 50+ tailored applications and 100-300 applicants for each one I'm literally going insane
It's truly awful, I only joined to job search and left a year or so later because it's filled with monumental pricks! It sucks for job searching too, had zilch from there. Don't give up hope! I've always had better luck with recruitment agencies or other job sites, LinkedIn sucks ass... best of luck to you 👍
😊😊
I managed to do my last job hunt without using linkedIn and I'm so grateful. It probably took me longer and I lost on some jobs automatically for sure but god, I hate linkedin and having to build a network.
omg tell me abt it ;-; ive been trying to find a job since i graduated HS and for abt 3 years now, 30 diff accounts of job sites, 7 diff resumes and im just tired of looking,, it sucks seeing other ppl have such an easy time with it while not even getting your foot anywhere near the door
"Great initiative Tom!" It just all seems so fake, I'm only on there to follow the organisations relevant to me, which are Government Orgs.
More linkedin cringe pls. We need to normalize shitting on this website the same we do with Facebook
''there is no point being the richest man in the graveyard....,,'' quote my late father , he left me some things not much , but he and my mum enjoyed life to the full and good on them ,expect nothing anything you get is a bonus
Damn thats a good quote, sounds like a good guy
My Grandad used to say that, And "You cant it with you" whenever he spent any
@@JustDaniel6764 you can’t it with you? you mean take?
"Shut up..." is the best possible response to this nonsense
I'm still coming to grips with the fact that LinkedIn is considered a social media platform now. I haven't opened that coffin since at least 2014-ish and it was just a place to put your resume back then ... Jesus, this is like waking up from a coma and finding the world altered in a way that you could have never predicted.
Saw someone on LinkedIn post about the brith of their new baby. They called it “the companies newest shareholder” and put it in a company branded baby grow 💀
Some people are just disgusting. Is there anyone that actually believes this bullshit? Or are all these people just going through the motions thinking everyone else will believe it?
You know that saying about how every child deserves a parent but not every parent deserves a child? Yeah, that seems extremely pertinent here.
to be fair, that sounds like a joke that wasn't executed well
Not to get radical on a George Memeulous video but to get radical on a George Memeulous video. I fucking hate how capitalism has created a society where there are people who think that people should put all there time into working and that being capable of doing work is a necessity for people being able to live
no one's last words was ever "i wish i worked more".
Balance in all things; a lot of work will always need doing for a society to prosper and provide for its citizens. But yeah. Our current society provides way too much for a select few of its citizens, with no particular correlation to actual merit or effort involved in their work or anything. In fact, the most privileged tend to do the least work. They just sit, and own, and collect the fruits of others' efforts. This is not a working economy, this is banditry in a metaphorical silk gown - or in the Emperor's New Clothes, that we are only just beginning to gather the courage to admit are just not there. Much like the 'value' of the wealthy themselves.
Anti capitalism on a George m video… so real of you
I mean being capable of doing work has always been a neccesity for people to live so I'm not sure if I get your point there.
@@kodiwtf my point is, though I should've clarified it more, that a universal basic income should exist which covers the base essentials in life
LinkedIn just the tinder for jobs except almost everyone there is insane
so the yubo for jobs 😭
So quite like Tinder.
so tinder but for jobs
The “except” part doesn’t exclude Tinder.
It's probably more like Grindr...
I feel sorry for the grind people. They always seem miserable
"My dentist said I grind in my sleep...he's real as for saying that"
Fr, it's their whole personality and it's dreadful
That's why they want everyone else to be as miserable as they are. Helps them feel better about their sad, pointless grind of an existence.
Dont feel sorry for them, they're the fools who wanted to everyone miserable, a negative emotion black hole
Can't be miserable if you're always grinding, no time to think about it, because there is no sleep, just more grinding
i thought linkedin was a job application site
It is, don't forget, you need 5 years of experience at the age of 18
@@yamiali1783 by the age of 18 they expect 21 years of experience

It’s supposed to be. In practice, it’s what happens when you try to make an internet community out of nothing but finance bros
‘the weekend is a modern invention’ compared to when workers had no rights?? also literally in the medieval age they worked short days, they spent a lot of time recreationally
There is a slight caveat to that, a lot of 'free' time was spent for religious purposes (Sunday mass, religious holidays, etc). Summertime was spent mostly harvesting - one could expect to work 12+ hours a day while doing that. However, in winter after crops were sown, there was more free time
5:57 Chris Donnelly's tiktoks are worth watching, he basically exposes dumb bosses and managers and it's so infuriating
I’m an 80 year old
hello mr. cat
Hah im 81 nerd
I'm 81 year old
I’m 82 take that
@@Razzy5 nuh uh im 83 now
bro was dead for 9 mins? wow hes a real hard worker since the brain is alive for only about 3 mins max after oxygen loss
So here's something I've learned pulling an 16 hrs a day, 7 days work (yes, weekend was not off the chart, very huge crunch time)
It made me so much exhausted that by the time I was done with the work, my brain was constantly saying "please leave, please leave, I don't need the money, please leave." It was as if I were in a survival situation, like you see in horror movie. Kinda reminded me of the "Ready Or Not" movie.
I hope you listened to your brain, mate. Please, tell me you did?
@@Thurnmourer Yes I did, Im now working for a much better corpo. Salary is good, worktime is usual 9-5, overtime aint a thing here, in short situation is much better. Well, thanks to that workplace, my current employee took me in for the experience.
Orson Welles made a movie about how trying to always prove yourself leads to a life of misery, solitude, and regret.
Everyone thinks that reddit and twitter have the most unhinged opinions on the internet
So linkedin is like the corporate version of those, i say this because I've been there(still recovering to this day)
'Imagine where you could be working 80 hours'
Divorced, probably in the grave by the time I'm 40
0.8 miles is just a little over 1 km, on average that would take at most 16 minutes. Okay it’s snowing and they’re bare foot, that should make you move faster honestly. I live in Canada and I had to walk like 1 km to get home from the bus stop, even when it was snowing or pouring rain, if my shoes were soaked through it made me walk faster because they’d be wet and then freezing at the same time. I’m really stuck on the fact they repeated 0.8 miles a couple times as if that’s the longest walk they’ve ever been on 😭
Edit: where I live in Canada when it gets cold it gets COLD, like in the negatives
I once walked 15 miles home in the snow because my work didnt let me go home when it started knowing I catch buses and sure enough they all got cancelled. They said how I could just sleep in office, but I would have to sleep in my office chair and would be woke up when the early shift came in. I left work at 7pm, and didn't get home until about 2am. Needless to say, I did not turn up the next day and my work actually did want to give me disciplinary for missing the day
I’m sorry!
that woman in the private plane got caught out for faking it from her Instagram,, she actually hired a fake private plane for one hour that was in a hangar to take her Instagram photos, you can see it is in a hangar if you zoom in and look through the windows, there are also no pilots in the cockpit. you can see the bad paint job on the step up to the cockpit, the thrust levers are in the ground idle position, so it is not in the air, the panel above the pilots is missing lots of switches that would normally be there.
There are plenty of aircraft interior mock-ups around that are exclusively hired out to Insta-whores et al on an hourly basis so they can fake it rather than make it!
Top marks for geekery. I approve. I love a good geeky nitpick. :)
@@cr10001 I am an aircraft engineer and notice these things in photos and videos from influencers
4:55 - Imagine bragging about how smart you are for "investing" your money ($35 of it, about enough to buy a one-billionth ownership share in some utterly worthless company, I imagine), while failing a math question as simple as "15+15=...?", in a hypothetical context _you_ created in the first place. Smh, smh.
Just goes to show, rich people =/= smart people... as much as they love to pretend the opposite.
All of that "hustle/grind culture" lacks 3 important things that make people different from robots: authenticity, humanity and soul.
If you're into that kind of stuff, basically your life revolves around only 1 thing - earning money. Nothing else matters to you. These people don't even get how shallow, hollow and bland their existence is.
I once visited an event organized by Tony Robbins. Don't ask me why, I was just recommended it and the event was in the city I wanted to visit for long time. I didn't really know who that Tony Robbins guy was, so I thought why not.
In my entire life I have never seen such huge gathering of absolutely empty people. It's supposed to be a networking event, but I didn't even want to discuss weather with them.
Such a weird place filled with people virtue signalling non stop.
And the virtue is always not virtues at all like "give up your family to hustle 25/8"
@@Fr0stbite1801 it is to the target audience 😂
I hate LinkedIn so much but unfortunately it’s necessary for the job search ☹️
LinkedIn is also the reverse of Tinder, where women makes themselves attractive to nerdy men who reject them
Trust me that's Tinder too.
Someone working before their start date is someone currently unemployed.
The start date is generally the notice period that they have to give for their current job.
The last job I took (still my current job) I joined a week early, but only because it was a week away working and staying in a Hotel every night. It saved me a bunch of money that I didn't need to spend on food back at home!
@@nickmaclachlan5178it saved you money to pay for hotel and takeaway instead of just a bit of food at home?
the hotel lobby one is literally a wheterspoons in Dublin lol
linkedin has done absolutely nothing for my career and job search. I was getting recruiters reaching out but they end up ghosting me, when I try to follow up about a SWE role I know I can do in my sleep.
i had to use linkedin for a school project and i remember i got a comment from some random guy that was like “this is a great video! but here’s some feedback on what you can do better!” FIRST OF ALL WHO ARE YOU???
People in secondary school with Linked In profiles always annoyed tf out of me 😭😭
wa people in academy/ highschool/ secodnary have profiels ruhh waaa
@@Brahma-Loves-You-he-creator Its just a bit wet mate imo
I feel like they're the type of ppl to make Andrew Tate like courses

I remember accidentally making a LinkedIn when I was like 10 or 11 because you could sync it with Google or something like that

“What you accomplish in a year
Others will do in six months”
😂😂😂
There's one thing that's evidently missing in the minds of those posters who think they are HR geniuses for squerzing the last bit of lifeblood from employees that way. And that is that as a candidate, you are free to tell them anytime to get bent, and go look for a job elsewhere where they don't treat you like you're in a Soviet gulag.
Imagine being smart enough to invest on trading platforms all your money, when you are convinced that 15 + 15 = 35.
15:30 Listening to music in explicitly scheduled 10-minute blocks is legit American Psycho behavior.
5 minutes of a LinkedIn reaction video is 10 minutes IRL
Never had LinkedIn profile and never will.
I used LinkedIn for a short while, the best part was this guy I met in real life was boasting about how his son was doing great in school and smashing his grades predictions but little did he know that I was one of his sons teachers and I knew that his son would randomly walk out of classes he didn’t want to do. His son was failing so bad, I felt bad for the boy, having a father like that who boasts so much
Those are super insufferable ppl. Seen them in most of companies i worked for.
Constantly "working" and doing so little. I realized i do more productive work in 1 hr then they do in a day.
I* than*
RIP To That Person’s Dad 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Every person in this vid should start an alpha podcast.
I’d love to see the parents story of why they were chatting about their kids dead dog on linkedin
LinkedIn started as like, a way to check out jobs and make career connections, right? Did I dream that? Is there some sort of singularity that slowly transforms every app and website into Facebook/Twitter?
linked in was supposed to be for people looking for work just ended up being bitcoin stans
3 weeks of off time even PTO would get me fired for sure 💀. 3 weeks is wilddddd
Not in Europe, where we have 4 weeks plus some extra days off.
I think he meant he was delivering the international sales seminar from Barcelona Spain, George 😂😂
11:30 I was about to say “104 days off? That’s the lyrics to the Phineas and Ferb song,” but then I googled how many days of weekends are in a year and it’s also 104. Mind fucking blown.
I am on LinkedIn by virtue of being potentially seen by future employers. No more. No less.
Linkedin is full of roasters
12:22 Hmmm idk MISS fkn *ESCOBAR* , I do have a slight suspicion that ‘private flying’ for you may - _may_ - be subsidised by the ‘extra baggage’, every kilo of which has been conveniently pre-wrapped, that may potentially be secreted within the chassis of said aircraft…? 👀
Small wonder she’s shilling for the PJ, the comparative profit margins must be incredible. Definitely worth it! You go #cartelgirlboss!
The guy with working on weekends has a point sometimes at my job someone has to be at the company on Saturday for 12 hours with nothing to do. Due to it beeing the weekend the 12h „work“ are 27h pay(9h*2+3h*3) 😂.
I love the fact that people who say : "work more, ears more" are also the same people who don't pay overtime to their employees.
I don't want to work more if you don't pay me my overtime hours
George…. I think he meant he was giving a seminar in Spain, not on the actual plane
HES SAYING HE DID THE SEMINAR IN BARCELONA NOT WHILST ON THE PLANE
Calm doon
Funny how we can both work hard and have 6 weeks of vacation a year in my country. You need to unionize.
11:10 I’m pretty sure that if you were clinically dead for nine minutes they wouldn’t just send you home the very same day😭
yk it’s a good day when u get that georgeM youtube notification
They should try having kids if they think getting up at 4am is some kind of flex 😂
Parik Patel to my knowledge is satire, and the math being wrong might just be rage bait because the interaction gives him joy.
9:36 - why are thy working in the hotel from Hitman: World of Assassination?
Great video ! For every hour spent on LinkedIn, 59 minutes 55 seconds is completely wasted and is time that you will never get back. There you are super-performers, that is my productivity tip-of-the-day.
Old people will ache and groan about participation trophies then hop on LinkedIn where they expect people to care when they attend a meeting
Haha stupid OLD people. If they were smart they would have stayed young.
2:03 I read so many books, not sure they are the kind Daniel Grissom would want me reading expecially on a plane (the horror of reading for fun omg) lmaoo
Also i find it so so funny when people act like reading a book is so intellectual when really im just enjoying myself a good book about dragons and people like Aaron Warner :)) lol
I gotta thank LinkedIn for setting me free. I realized I could never be among those people, though I had come from the same world. It was a real ugly duckling moment.
I'll be honest, I don't think UK LinkedIn is this dire. American grind culture is just wild... and bizzare.
funnily enough, that chris donnelly guy i’m pretty well off and has a tiktok talking about how insane some bosses are towards people; definitely can’t get promoted bc he is the boss/co-boss of his companies
George will you do a video on Burton and bennets
please
LinkedIn? More like LockedIn, we found the threat.
I think most of those who preach about working 20 hours a day simply don't realize that they are wasting time on a social thinking that someone will actually find them cool 😵💫 Of course, if you have the opportunity it's better to spend extra time working than to throw it out the window, but you also need to be able to re-establish your mental serenity in order to perform at your best at work. 🤷♂
11:46 has bro ever heard of the sabbath? It’s a bit more than 100 yrs old 😂
"Imagine where you could be working 80 hours."
In a cemetery.
I love how at 7:10, he says : but for me it was normal, and then proceeds to making an entire post about it. Sure buddy.
12:44 you can actually take animals with you in economy class , you just have to buy a separate seat for them, that’s how I transported my cat once
If LinkedIn was owned by Andrew Tate 💀

Yes it really is. Absolutely toxic.
U will never convince me to work longer hours if you arent guaranteeing me the salary. A suggestion that in the long run i’ll be richer for giving 50% extra without a direct paycheck, is absolutely ridiculous. Dont give in guys. Work what u have to, then go home and have fun, enjoy your life.
2:31 dude thinking 8 in the morning is early riseimg is insane. Thats sleeping in for most people lol. And thats comeing from someone who is currantly nocturnal

great video to remind myself why I'm a socialist bro we gotta stop these people
Since you mentioned Come Fly With Me, how about doing a rewatch with your friends, geezer?
Calling a place that's hiring to ask to move back an interview because your car broke down is a bad look
Having to get an ambulance called to the place interviewing you because you walked in the door and left one of your little frostbitten shrivelled black toes after you is an even worse look
anyone who has a packed linkedin profile is either a narcissist or just extremely good at what they do
14:05 of course resolution time went down… people give up if they’re talking to a dumb chatbot
its always a bad day when george memeulous posts ❤❤
Parik Patel is def satire 😂
11:30 Weekends are a concept barely 100 years old, huh? The first chapter of the first book in the bible says God took a day to rest after creating the world. Even if you don't believe in creationism, someone wrote that thousand of years ago. The weekend is literally the oldest invention in history.
George should make a music videos tier list ( when worlds collide by powerman 5000 has a really bad video)

Linkedin is where toxic positivity is glorified. I rarely use n only there to filled professional info. Nice and convenient to connect with many people from different background, just do not glued yourself in their posts. overdone motivational bs and "I am 24 and a CEO" kinda things.
So how is being a CEO or boss ? Not being “bossy” surely the bossiest one can be is being a boss
A lot of stuff posted on Linkedin these days is a wind up
I am so glad to be living in Europe where this insane grind culture is no where to be seen.. I think I'd lose it if i had one friend/coworker who was like that lol
