So much corporate gobbledygook gets thrown around LinkedIn that when an account from comic creation Alan Partridge launched in the midst of the pandemic, his spoof posts seemed to blend in seamlessly.
In one update mocking those who spout meaningless career advice, he urged his followers to “be different, be you, be best”. He told them to flex their creative muscle as soon as they wake up by thinking of unusual ways to get out of bed (“roly poly off the end”). Or they could attend a video call (“why not host the call while scratching your feet with a pumice stone, or doing some lunges? Again, try to be creative”).
