@ivo_ivanovski Haha, legendary! So, you're suited up for success, just like Barney? ๐
@h_anil_yarimca always in my closet :)))
They're convinced I'm just messing around on the computer all day till last year. And don't even get me started on working from home โ they think I'm on permanent vacation! But hey, at least I used to get some quality family time, even if it involves a lot of interrupted "work"! ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐
@h_anil_yarimca They know I'm building something and sometimes watching YouTubes. :) We're launching "Cascad3 - A decentralized inspiration-driven publishing platform" on Product Hunt soon. I would appreciate your support and feedback by clicking the "Notify Me" button to stay tuned and be the first to know when Cascad3 debuts on the stage.๐

They just call me LinkedIn guy, though it is a lot more than that! :D
@haralds_gabrans_zukovs Haha, the struggle is real! I wish I could be upgraded to the "LinkedIn Guy" in my family too! ๐
@h_anil_yarimca Well, that is an upgrade before it was just a guy by the laptop the whole day... :D
โI work on internetโ, my parents are teachers so there is no way for me to try to explain them the goal of LinkedIn automation for sales prospecting
@samuel_rondot Totally feeling it! ๐
I sell products that you can't touch ahahaha
@bencreatives Hahaha, that was good! I will use this.
Haha love this, this is funny. Tried to explain Investment Banking once to my family before and in the ended decided to just wrap up the conversation and said "you know what, it's accounting" ๐๐
@nolan_wang Haha, sometimes simplicity is key! "It's accounting" covers all bases! ๐
Launching soon!
hahaha they think I just stare at the screen and type out random stuff, I work from home btw.
@talkinideas Haha, the classic "typing out random stuff" job! At least we're good at it! ๐
