The Dirty Word Linkedin Game

Okay, chalk this post up to someone who was bored and looking for a few giggles. With my Recruiter hat on, I went to Linkedin in and began searching the profiles. Okay, I admit that this doesn’t sound too exciting. Well, guess what I did to shake things up a bit? I began to base my searches on “dirty” words. Why? Well… Truth be told, I was feeling especially juvenile. When I saw the results, there was some obvious spam at play. However, on several occasions I discovered “real” profiles whose names made me laugh out loud. (Again, I was in a very juvenile state of mind.)
Check out what was giving me the giggles.
Hmm… some profiles were just one letter off from ROTFL.
Oh, this last one gets an “honorable” mention because of his company name. I suspect that it has nothing to do with hair and beauticians.
I am sure that there are more out there that I have overlooked. Do me a favor and leave a link to any funny social network profiles that you come across.
Happy Hunting!
Jim

I did this when I was recruiting and had access to resumes posted on monster. You’d be amazed at how many people inadvertently left the f out of the word shift on their resumes, which rendered titles like Sh*t Supervisor, Sh*t Leader, etc.
Obvious, that one has to much time on their hands!
This is a funny post, i don’t use linkedin enough to really get it. But really, if you want to promote yourself and say hello to future employers, Fireviews is the best place to get yourself seen
Great comic relief. Some appear made up though, even with the photos. Any legitimate names such as those would probably have been changed by prior generations so that they are non-existent now. No matter how much you want to honor your ancestry, you’d eventually get tired of telling people, ‘it’s va-heen-ya’, or, ‘pronounced poo-say, it’s French’, or ‘That’s MISTER Penis to you, buddy!’

Darn,
None of them came through when I opened it. Will have to play some myself.
