13249848, wood but

it's just a suggested connection not one either of us are trying to make.. he probably gets me up in his list too and curses.. I imagine sometimes we might even curse each other at the same moment.

13249722, is the ex-mgr REQUESTING you?
Posted by infin8, Tue Apr-10-18 05:33 PM
I keep getting requests from vendors. Like, 'Dude we can't be LinkedIn friends...issa conflict of interest'. and they KNOW better.

13249850, no

13249768, Linked in keeps suggesting chicks I used to mess with in the 90's.
Posted by FLUIDJ, Wed Apr-11-18 06:48 AM
it's really getting annoying considering
1)I deleted my Linked In profile YEARS ago...i'm talking at least 10 years ag0...
2)I've NEVER had any sort of professional working relationship with these women and we haven't communicated since college.
3)How in the HELL does LinkedIN keep getting through my spam filters???
"Get ready....for your blessing....."

13250052, Damn Sun, You've Been Tracked Hard By Google Analytics Or Something

Mabye it's time you invested in an ad blocker or something, or getting a new email or email provider, seems like someone wants to reconnect with you in the worst way.

13249853, I haven't updated my LinkedIn in over six years, I think

13249856, haven't updated the profile in almost that long
Posted by PG, Wed Apr-11-18 11:25 AM
but I've accepted a few connection requests.. seems like every time I log on to do that though his name pops up.. fricking Linked in is relentless on that.. too many shared connections their algorithm is like "YOU FREAKING KNOW EACH OTHER I KNOW YOU DO!!!"
LMAO

13250057, My goal is to unplug from this matrix. Linkedin was a last straw
Posted by flipnile, Thu Apr-12-18 10:09 AM
I gotta social media-up my resume and career now? Hell, naw.
I never want to sit through another job interview in life. Ever. Period. Always feels like selling my soul for pennies on the dollar.

13250076, hell yeah~!

13258376, this is escalating. now I'm getting a suggested connection of his manager
Posted by PG, Tue May-15-18 10:54 AM
who I liked even less... this LinkedIn suggestion bot obviously doesn't know me at all... these are people who I might not hold the door for if they were being pursued by hell hounds let alone acknowledge actual acquaintance or association with... gtfoohwtbs.

13258415, Are they from a job that you don't have listed on your profile?
Posted by soulfunk, Tue May-15-18 12:20 PM
Because if you do have that job listed, and both of those managers also do, it would be pretty normal for them to come up as suggested.
Even if you don't have it listed, it would still be normal since it's likely that you have mutual connections...
