Re: Wow. Just wow. @Trevor
"But I bet they were subsequently hired on for more money elsewhere."
You are right.
I've seen plenty of utterly incompetent IT staff get (finally!) laid off and then they're picked up at the next company with higher salaries - of course - just because they were competent at polishing their Linkedin CV's and/or they have mad skillz at oral BS.
I've been following our company's firewall statistics for some time now, and the top two bandwidth hogs are a pay-per-view golf channel and a distant second is Linkedin. How fucked is that?
