What's the un-edited version? I want to see how they try to describe how '"hard they worked"

[–] Infrapink@thebrainbin.org 7 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Here's the original

I became Senior VP at a multi-million dollar company at age 26. My salary was $600k. This was in 2018.

How did I do it?

It wasn’t hustle culture. No 5:30am wakeups, cold showers, or productivity hacks.

What got me there was a relentless focus on impact. Every project I touched, every deck I built, every presentation I gave MOVED THE NEEDLE.

Always, I asked myself: what is the single most valuable contribution I can make to the company right now? And I did that. If people disagreed, I convinced them otherwise.

I kept this up for three years before the CEO (my dad) finally recognized my results and promoted me to SVP.

There are no gimmicks. There are no shortcuts.

Jesus. It's almost exactly as I imagined it.

If people disagreed, I convinced them otherwise.

Because being wrong didn't matter. Daddy had their back.

It's satire. It's a bunch of typical LinkedIn nonsense (run every morning, read, do yoga, etc) then the bait and switch at the end is that their dad just gave them a multi-six-figure position at an investment firm he runs.

Not sure why they blacked out so much of the post, the original is funny enough.

[–] Doctorbllk@slrpnk.net 6 points 2 days ago

It has been posted elsewhere recently unredacted and 90% of the comments could not understand that it was satire.
