Read a satirical LinkedIn profile so uncomfortably accurate, I’m convinced the author followed me to work for a week. 10/10 satire.

I'm suddenly inclined to write my own satirical profile but I'm worried I won't know the difference between real life and satire because my professional life is finding itself in the DOGEgasm .

It's disturbingly sad that "finding itself in the DoGEgasm doesn't even narrow it down." It just reminds us all we are living in an Onion Article dreamed up by that guy who lived on your couch and read Ayn Rand.

Honestly, at this stage, I’m not sure any of us can tell the difference. Half my real CV already reads like satire — “Proactively circled back on low-hanging fruit”?? That’s not a skill, that’s a cry for help.
If your career’s in a full-blown DOGEgasm, lean in. Add it to your résumé under “Achievements” — right between “Excel wizard” and “Survived three reorgs and a mandatory mindfulness webinar.”

There is a sub for LinkedIn lunatics that is pretty funny. Sometimes satire profiles are confused for real profiles.

Today was not the day for this one. I felt it deep in my soul. All of the wasted years doing nothing. And the fucking line about Foucault was just the icing. God, I hate living.
