Yes, but this is LinkedIn, the online version of The Apprentice for these types. She has probably just filed this under "learning opportunity"/"no such thing as bad engagement" and carried on. 😬
'his eyes lit up'
*quickly thinks* Who is the random person harassing me in a café? Ah! Must offer similar platitudes until she hopefully goes away & ruins someone else's day.
Making 'dropping out' a career path is quite something.
She may think this might be a great time for her to flee her embarrassment, head to the emptiness of Mongolia and start her expedition early, but no. I live in Ulaanbaatar, and I'll be waiting for her in an 'I am also not Piyush Gupta' t-shirt when she lands.
That thing has had so much use, you should prob just buy a replacement instead of continually washing it to rags. You'll get your money's worth out of a new one.
Her mission sounds really cool and unfortunately very necessary. Too bad whomever this is decided to take advantage by lying about who he was, thus actually proving her point. Men the world over frequently disgust me.
Folks for anyone interested: There's a sub on reddit called LinkedInLunatics. Y'all should check out some of the entries in here. Certified hall-of-famers!I 😁
Our girl Janney shouldn't do drugs. Next post will be how she met Jesus while partying hard in Ibiza & how that "transformed her mindset!"😆
This reminds me of the time when I ran into Warren Buffet at Denny's and we discussed my plan to train an army of monkeys to operate 3D printers in Costa Rica. Warren was very supportive.
Does this person get up at 4am, go for a 10k run, eat a granola power shake then a bunch of grapes and nail 12 deals before 8am. Because anything else is for fucking losers, baby.
Lunch is a bunch of raw spinach & a boiled egg, in the shell.
25 more deals by 3pm then gym until 10pm.
I think it says a lot (and nothing good) about the real guy that he didn't just send her a private message and instead chose to publicly humiliate her.
What’s that sales tactic about gotta knock on 1000 doors to sell 10 encyclopedias or something like that? 🤔
Just think of the exposure her biz is getting now from people who never followed either of them before but heard about all this from other sites like 🦋😁
my heart genuinely twinged for her, she wrote that whole post so earnestly I thought for sure it was some ChatGPT drip. But no. She was just geeked meeting someone she looked up to. Then that gut punch of a comment. 😅 Hope she’s taking a day offline lol.
And in that moment I had another realization, the most inspiring leaders aren’t even leaders, they’re some guy in a cafe in Bali who didn’t fully understand your original question but didn’t want to let you down because you seemed so excited and just kind of got trapped in a conversation.
Hang on a minute. Doesn’t this reply just reinforce how humble and ‘entirely unassuming’ Piyush Gupta really is?
Refusing to take any credit, what a legend. 😂
As far as that guy's aware some tourist made small talk with him about her job, he replied "oh yeah, walks are great" and then she asked to take a photo for some reason
Pfffttt what a loser, she doesn't even recognize Piyush?? Ridiculous! How can she possibly maximize her potential while delivering solid quarterly KPI metrics?
I'd love to know who this guy was and how he rose to the occasion so hard.
But then, that's taking her word for it that the exchange happened as described. And it's almost certainly somewhere north of heavily embellished, if not wholly fictionalized.
I think I might have been sat five feet away from the CEO of my company in a theatre bar a month or so back. I was way short of 50% though because I don’t really know what he looks like
they tend to have actually *important* things buried in them, which makes them even more annoying! I assume he thinks it's "humanising", but it's mostly unwanted junk with occasional useful information in
Start of a true crime thriller. Why was he there in this backwater cafe? Was he on the run? And how do you get LinkedIn posts to emphasise your sales patter in italics?

Bugger off
He didn't have to do her like that ! Just let the woman be inspired
🤭😂😂

But this comment section is taking me out 😭😂
Less is more, people.
I shouldn’t have read the second part😂
I was so happy, then I got disillusioned.
Ouch, ouch and ouch again. Cheeks must be burning with embarrassment.....
Refusing to take any credit, what a legend. 😂
All hail The Wrong Guy.
Dumbass.

Did you make it all the way through?
You are just trying to sucker me into suffering
