The fit lad/lass on LinkedIn

You know the one I am talking about.

Didn't find your answer?

So the hotty recruiter on LinkedIn sends a connection request asking "to join your network".

You know if you click "yes" he/she will be going through your contact list like a rosser with a search warrant.

But he/she is super-cute. What is it to be people? Yes or No?

No. I tend to go for something more subtle like "show us yer [insert organ or glands of your choice]".

Yes all day long.

I love reading the posts from the Linkedin Police who round on pictures of smart women who have just received sales bonus cheques, and all the bra burners get on about how exploited they are how there is no place on Linkedin for this.

Send her to my profile she can happily rifle through my contact list.

It appears as though his [***] got stuck on the return key.

To be fair it could still be sticky from the acceptance of previous invitations.

A whole new meaning to the term "sticky keys".

I am a no, probably part of that Edinburgh reserve and aloofness.

Edinburghers are not a hospitable lot, if you want hospitality you likely need our weegie cousins, and given I am only an Edinburgher by address, I originally hail from the Borders, I am likely even more dour/suspicious than most.

Someone has to police the site......

I always accept. You never know when you'll need a recruiter. I don't accept invitations from people I know are trying to sell me things like marketing, design, etc. Or that are based in other countries that are absolutely not related to my industry.

Also love to have a giggle at some of the rants from the 'Linkedin police'. It can be funny. @cheeky uugggghhhh is all I can say!

That is so politically incorrect.......surely you mean ladyboy instead of a lad/lass or he/she?

"Ladyboy" is also politically incorrect.

I think the correct term is "chick with dick".

This is so wrong. Is anyone on here planning to run for President of the US? (If so, the other necessary qualification is an ability to tweet.)

Definitely "no".
I lived in an era of actually going out and meeting girls without the help of an app or website so a picture of a girl from the other side of the world who I will never meet does nothing for me.

What steps have you taken to ensure this super-hot recruiter hasn't borrowed an early Arnie Schwarzenegger photo for his / her avatar?

Well all the recruiters I know are huge, ugly rugby-playing brutes with dog-ears and broken noses. And that includes the blokes. So I wouldn't!

When you have the like icon in your hand, and you are ready to burst a load of like, it is definitely love.

No in love, Bernard. In the sense of being on the brink of sending them a message to let them know that they are the fittest fitbit on LinkedIn (rather than Facebook).

Only if they have whole network of lots of Fitbits! Looking at the pictures on LinkedIn is a whole lot more fun than anything else on LinkedIn. That said, even if Jay, the hunkiest hunk on TV from Tattoo Fixers asked to Link and said he was into Marketing or Digital Solutions or god forbid HMRC I'd have to say no (well Jay might persuade me if he had a shave first ;-) )
