Ngl if it weren’t for my soul crushing student loan debt, I’d do this. Not to qualify for jobs or gloat, I just love learning.

I hope to start a PhD before 40 but the finances and family life aren’t looking too promising.

ElderberryLow ,

Same. I’d do every IT degree possible if so lol.

PeepinGoodArgs ,

Me too! I plan on doing a PhD sometime in my 40s, before I turn 50.

Why do you think he's still in school? They can't start collecting until you finish school. All he has to do is remain in school longer than fasfa remains solvent....so Id say he's got a chance.

Nachorella ,

If it's not to qualify for jobs you can always just learn online for free. I suppose it depends on the degree but there's quite a lot you can just teach yourself these days.

I learn new things almost every day, I haven't set foot in a school in nearly 20 years.

My dog eats shoe soles when she gets separation anxiety, and miraculously, she hasn’t managed to need surgery (for that) yet.

That one was free, but the next dog fact is gonna set you back $10k.

(And we know the shoes are an issue. The last 3 were a friends shoe that was accidentally left here in a place we didn’t spot them, our dog sitter’s mom’s shoe (from her closet!), and my wife’s shoe from the ’no dog area’ when we forgot to close a baby gate.)

Ngl every time that thought runs through my head it eventually hits a wall at some point in the class when you've had your fill of curiosity for the subject, would rather move on to something else, but now you are stuck doing homework and working on that paper.

Bruh. I question very seriously the wisdom of any applicant who has a PhD. Considering that a good deal of my job requires me to fire useless phds when their idiot bosses won’t do it.

I have a PhD, btw. Been through the trenches.

Ragnarok314159 ,

My employer has hired a few PhD’s for entry level engineering positions, and then they always end up fired because they are too incompetent to do it.

“I have a PhD”. Yeah, but you can’t even do this basic shit and your doctorate is in nothing we care about, but you knew some people.

ResoluteCatnap ,

Ive often thought that id love to get paid to learn. Like give up my job and my new job is just learning

Ragnarok314159 ,

You can, but then it switches from learning to discover something. Expanding human knowledge is cool, but then reality sets in with funding, getting published, and having to kiss ass to rich idiots who think they are just as smart as you.

You can audit classes for free at Harvard online.

What's crazier is the Twitter guy acting like he was taking a risk...

If I was the applicant and I found out about this, I'd 100% start applying to a new company.

You might get the job, but no one is going to listen to you.

Edit:

Or does LinkedIn look like Twitter now? I never used it so assumed it was Twitter and the screenshot was linked in profile

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Yeah that's LinkedIn.

You can tell because it's as crazy as Twitter but not quite as racist.

lamabop ,

And less porn (for now)

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

LinkedIn would do well with a couple buttholes.

People just business shit post there all day, huh?

extant ,

What else is a CEO supposed to do, work?

RizzRustbolt ,

It's like a less transphobic Tumblr.

Spacehooks , in This might qualify as Instagram poetry

Noooooo must have 500 years of experience! Also it's entry level.

I don't know about them formatting, but the content is positive. You should hire people without bullshit 'experience' requirements

fckreddit ,

I have seen the exact same post posted by multiple people in LinkedIn and it is posted only for farming reactions and followers. They didn’t truly do this.

HootinNHollerin , (edited ) in This might qualify as Instagram poetry

I don’t understand how this has anything to do with Instagram

In case you don't know about Instagram poetry, it's very memeable because a lot of examples are just regular sentences with random line breaks, much like this LinkedIn post

Ahh

A true Mask off post. They're admitting that experience is BS, and that they only accept people based on feelings and not qualifications.

fckreddit ,

But, the current system helps them pretend that it is objective. It’s like meritocracy, it only exists in theory, not in practice.

How to lose my respect on day one.

Droechai ,

Are your respect based on the ability to contain flatulence? You do you, I just hope that any lactose intolerant people around you stay away from that sweet lactose :P

ChanchoManco , in A good leader always farts first 💨

That's totally something Michael Scott would say.

themeatbridge ,

And in true Michael Scott fashion, below the veneer of inappropriate immaturity, there is nascent wisdom.

But then he accidentally shits himself trying to fart and you forget all about that.

slazer2au , in A good leader always farts first 💨

Is someone still running the cloud to farts plugin from the early 2010s?

ArtVandelay ,
@ArtVandelay@lemmy.world avatar

I remember it as cloud-to-butt

Diplomjodler3 , in A good leader always farts first 💨

Somebody may have been huffing their own farts a bit too much.
