New MBA drop: a bootcamp to deal with the twelve types of MBA nerds!
HAHAHAHA this is peak satire
Wait, this is real? I thought this was a joke at first…
This guy is a LinkedIn comedian.
Wow, haha.
3 friends is actually impressive, considering
No shortage of stupid on this planet
This is growing more apparent by the day
They’re less funny to me when they’re intentional/satire.
Indeed, for me, it was the astrophysics PhD. Reading it hurt me physically, besides killing his joke at the spot.
Twice when I’ve been out drinking have an older female sat alone all night, close to and staring at our group, then the first thing they say is “I’ll let you know I actually have 3 PhDs and 2 doctorates, and I gotta say (some random bullshit)”. Like “I don’t think that joke you told two hours ago was funny”. We just knew they would say some weird shit as soon as we saw them, the whole “I’m super smart” thing was just so much worse than expected.
I’ve never met anyone with an MBA who wasn’t a moron.
You should meet my brother then. He has an MBA and CPA and runs an accounting firm. He’s pretty chill and treats his workers extremely well, while taking most of the lame work for himself.
“He must not have gone to a good school for his MBA then” - people with MBAs, probably
Lol. It’s one of the better ones.
Yeah, usually, what’s perceived as intelligent by most is some of the theoretical reasoning, critical thinking, creative problem solving, and analytic-logical thinking that you learn and practice in higher education. But somehow, those with business degrees never have any of those qualities. I do wonder what they’re being taught instead.

Line go up.
Maybe the non-morons don’t make a point of telling you they have an MBA.
Yep. I know a few people who got their workplace to pay for it. It was an incredibly easy way for them to pad their resume and ensure higher pay ranges at stupid workplaces that gated stuff like that.
Only came up when we were talking about schooling (I was still finishing mine).
Everyone that made a big deal of it though, complete morons.
stupid workplaces that gated stuff like that
May not be working at Lowe’s much longer, but they make a point that a piece of paper isn’t a big deal. I think it’s the CFO that doesn’t have a degree?
Anyway, CEO is proud to say that a diploma on the wall isn’t a free ride. Busted my ass there for 3-months, got a promotion in the bag tomorrow. OTOH, just got a surprise interview for a tech job that pays 3x more. 🤷🏻♂️ Win either way!
Congrats!
Kind of like how the worst people in tech brag about their certifications
I went on a date with an elite level female as a mafia boss level 40. LMAO
This almost feels like a greentext
She dodged a bullet
You got hit with a troll, that’s a comedian
The best comedy is exaggerating real life… but is he really exaggerating?
He’s telling a story of fiction, op is misrepresenting it to virtue signal at the expense of others
It’s a joke
Yeah, these fucking idiots without an MBA. Einstein, Hawking, DaVinci, etc
As if an MBA was an achievement. My wifes brother made a Harvard MBA in his free time (paid for by his employer), and considered it laughably easy. I’ve read the course books he gave me, and I agree. For someone coming from the natural sciences side of things, MBA is kindergarten level. It is amazing with how little actual knowledge people get into high business positions nowadays.
A lot of the elite business communities are entirely extended social groups. Lots of nephews. Lots of professional self-promotionists. Lots of gurus, promising to deliver quasi-spiritualist business secrets. The system they’re attached to is swimming in surplus revenue, so doing relatively simple arbitrage with a big enough line of credit can enrich these well-connected individuals quickly. And putting someone with connections to easy credit onto your board is a great way to grow your company.
MBAs get to operate at the kindergarten level because they’re playing with billions of dollars in a game that is designed to guarantee they (mostly) walk away winners.
Trump is a classic example. Lose a billion dollars, go out and find another line of credit, gamble on double or nothing, market goes up so you win it all back again. Nobody asks where this credit is coming from or why The Donald is uniquely positioned to draw on it. Elon has a similar story. He just keeps spinning the wheel and doubling down, confident that the game has a positive ROI, so he’ll always come out ahead in the end.
For people who don’t know Ken Cheng is satire and making fun of LinkedIn people.
I did not know, so I appreciate this heads up.
He is hilarious, and the comments he incites are even better.
This gotta be bait lmao
Lemmy is not beating the spectrum rumors with satire detection skills like this.
Would you … stand … fucking still … so I can … please, can I … can I read … can I please read the fucking TEXT?!
You’d be surprised at how many allistic people can’t detect satire
Yeah I was just taking the piss, the joke was clear as day to me and I’ve got one of these diagnoses myself. The “unspecified” kind, whatever the fuck that means.
Reddit was real bad at this. Lemmy is so much worse.
NPCs with their programming are insipid as fuck. Imagine being around idiots like this that never self actualised in their lives.
This guy is a satire poster mocking the type of posts you see on LinkedIn all the time loudly bragging about being sociopaths and workaholics.
Another good satire account to follow on Linkedin is Conksat. Their brave interns risk everything for their cutting edge aerospace solutions, like tactical cessna’s and extension cord powered satellites
Tactical Cessna is closer to reality than you think, when you look at some of the cheaper UAVs out there.
