"Thank you for letting me and my 50+ person team..."

LinkedIn and it’s members are strangely resistant to embracing the platform as just a fancy job board. That’s the only thing we are all using it for, right?

Thanks to LinkedIn I can now avoid co-workers for their well hidden mindset is now out in the open.

Totally agree. So does my team of 10 employees I manage - they can’t stop raving about me!
