Middle management Memes

The vicious truth nobody asked for but everyone needed to hear! LinkedIn has evolved into this bizarre ecosystem where middle managers flaunt their "thought leadership" through humble-brags, corporate buzzword salad, and those insufferable "I'm proud to announce" posts. They're essentially selling a carefully curated professional persona to their network, complete with engagement-baiting stories about hiring the person who spilled coffee on them during the interview. The professional equivalent of thirst traps, just with more mentions of "synergy" and "leveraging core competencies."

Nothing says "career progression" like flying away from a corporate hellscape while leaving behind a codebase that would make Cthulhu weep. The sweet irony of trading a stable paycheck for startup chaos just to escape middle management—only to discover you've merely swapped one dumpster fire for another with fewer extinguishers and half the water pressure. That smug smile says it all: "I might be taking a 50% pay cut, but at least I won't have to sit through another 2-hour sprint planning meeting where we discuss how to rename variables for optimal synergy."
