Where can you mention AS ?

[New POD]

Today I mentioned AS on linkedin, for a laugh.

Hahahahaha

[Stanky]

I think there is an AS group on the 'interests' section. I suspect publicly announcing your membership of it will result in all future job offers being withdrawn.

[DodgyBastard]

OP sounds like a right cunt.

[Brodders]

The first rule of Autoshite is that you do not talk about Autoshite.

 

Edit: Can we call it Shite Club?

[NorfolkNWeigh]

So this cunt leases a secondhand BMW and had a "celestial experience" WTF?

 

Do you think he understands what celestial means?

But he was so brave and daring paying a deposit without seeing the year old BMW Approved car from probably the best known BMW dealership in the UK .

Verdict: Grade A Pistonheader

Could be worse, he could be dick waving THE BRAND OF FUCKING OFFICE CHAIR HE BUYS https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=210&t=1711124

I should maybe (not) log on PH and mention that I got an office chair off ebay (which is quite comfy to be honest) for 87 pence.

 

I had to go and pick it up in the MX5 and then drive back to be digs along the A50 with the roof down. Lucky the rain stayed at spitting level and I didn't get wet much.

[Sheefag]

I stalked various uber expensive 'Steelcase' chairs over the years. Finally bought one that stank of cigarette smoke but came right money as a result. I still have it.

It's fucking rubbish. My wife chose and bought one at Makro for £18. It's the most comfortable thing on the planet. Bollocks.

Has something been deleted or am I missing the joke?

Glad it’s not just me. All I get is a review for a 4 series BEEMW, a photo of a toddler, and another of a fat bloke breathing in.

Read that back to yourself and think about what you sound like.

 

 

Had to laugh at that reply on PH.

[Split_Pin]

I had to revisit that and realised that the reference is to the cimments section.

 

I was worried because the author of the article sounds the exact opposite of a shiter before I realised where to look.

 

A so-called dream life and job, written about in an icky, sterile style*.

Everything that boils my piss about LinkedIn right there.

 

Namedropping, buzzwords and made up job roles, arselicking and egotripping.

 

I keep getting told at work I need an account. The last time it was by our contact at Microsoft, who own LinkedIn.

I created one, and they still weren't impressed. Apparently "Bobby Fakename" isn't allowed to be on there and got banned shortly afterwards.

It is in one of the comments (the third), which you have to expand to get impressions of the full 'celestial experience' of buying an incontinent Omega for the price of one leg of an office chair in BMW Park Lane

[Split_Pin]

I joined about 2 years ago and was told it would be amazing for my career.

 

Its fucking shit. Like Bebo, but less relevant.

 

I got a new job through someone that knew me instead.

[dollywobbler]

I sacked LinkedIn off ages ago. Sod all use for anything. It's like a Facebook for work, which is a bit like an office evening out - not as much fun as going out with actual friends and far too much talk about bloody football. (that may be before I started working in offices that are related to cars. I enjoyed those nights out much more).

I was hesitating about saying nasty stuff about LinkedIn earlier, but you've beat me to it.

 

I sacked it off ages ago too, after about their 2nd mass hacking and associated account details and password leak. "Hi, I work in IT and I have my personal details on a site that's been very publicly hacked several times!" *click* "Hello...?"

 

 

It's just a bunch of annoying people with horseshit job titles wanking each other's egos over made-up job offers to each other. Makes my skin crawl.

Why the fuck would you call a baby girl Marley?   (unless you are a fan of floor tiles)

I think you'll find that is a platinum reinforced name 7.0 unlike the inferior ones.

Dammit you got there first.

[Split_Pin]

I call it AS but only because I cant really say Shite in frint of my 4 year old son!

"digital experience is a determinant of my satisfaction..."

 

FFS you yuppie twat. On your death bed, will you consider that you have lived a worthwhile life, do you think?

 

My brother (a real person who has long suffered in that sort of business) explained LinkedIn to me a few years ago: "there's only two types of people on there - those tedious self promoters who spend their entire careers self promoting rather than doing any actual work, and those who are desperate"

 

And to be fair and answer the original question, at work I refer to this parish as 'my favourite car forum' and leave it at that.

I went and bought a car from a car supermarket. 

It was undemanding. The weather was inclement. 
I'm supposed to be a master of gibberish and that's all I can muster about my 'experience' - which I think was the point. 

Said Leonard is still going strong, despite the best efforts of the local dealer and Fenland wildlife. 

Sadly, the SEAT's boot isn't large enough to cart around the incumbent politics which go with my job, ho hum. 

[Inspector Morose]

Sometimes I wonder, especially after a rather nice bottle of merlot, whether this very forum is mentioned to provoke a reaction from the respective audience. I mean there are many forums on this great web of tlife that we all live in these days that cater for many of our indulgences but none has a title that encapsulates in one word what we love about the world. We like shite. We like the unloved, the underdog, the forgotten yet we use a word to describe this that evokes, without doubt, a reaction to the word and not the subject matter.

 

I might also be talking utter rubbish.

[Ghosty]

Some prick keeps inviting me to LinkedIn.

Why? I'm a 22 year old with 2/3 of a degree and on deferral for the other year. 

 

I generally mention AS if I get talking to someone who turns out to be like-minded, especially if they spot my dealer sticker. That said people found it funnier on the 200 than they do on the 740. I don't think anyone's commented on it since I got the 740, actually.

You can all link to me if you like.  It would make a change from the 2300 plus Recruitment Consultants I've linked with.

 

PM me if you want my email address and user name.
