Yeah, I really don't like that taste of vomit in my mouth he just made me experience...
I used to have a president who bragged about how humble they were
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.
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.
"It's a form, not a student debt corporation." - My Mom.
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.
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.
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.
TIL
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.)
You can audit classes for free at Harvard online.
Most colleges have the option to audit classes for free even!
"...and he's the best second shift server we have on staff"
I have 47 different degrees and two years of experience as a degree forger
People just business shit post there all day, huh?
What else is a CEO supposed to do, work?
It's like a less transphobic Tumblr.
This person’s LinkedIn account is real but they’ve also written a book about getting into all the top programs, they’ve been a CEO of their own company since 2013, and been on other boards. You can find him pretty quickly in the comments on that post.
Am I being cynical or oblivious when I see that history and assume it's mostly bullshit?
He was getting a masters in math at Harvard at the same time he was getting a masters in education at Stanford, while also going to Stanford Business School.
Taking one class of each program at a time technically counts as doing that program!
Except the timelines they have for all the course are as if he was a full time student…. Something isn’t adding up here.
It also says they cum loudly, don't think it's a serious document at all
(Do... Do I have to put the /s? Probably... Oh well)
I think it might be satire.
I have 20 BAs, 17 AAs, and 4 doctorates.
If only 1 of them was in my name... 😮💨
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
Yeah that's LinkedIn.
You can tell because it's as crazy as Twitter but not quite as racist.
And less porn (for now)
If I saw this I'd be seriously concerned as a recruiter (I do recruitment for my firm sometimes), bit of a red flag. Does this person have any work experience whatsoever?
Right, that or it's a bunch of BS. Either way it can't be good. At a certain point you need either work experience or a portfolio for what you've worked on since your degree. Having only degrees is a problem.
