State of the Market

As someone who's source of work is largely a well maintained LI network what else would you suggest they do? Words are cheap when it's not your bum on the bench.

See it a lot too, times are hard but a meltdown on Linkedin never seems like a good idea. Go nuts on facebook or instagram by all means, but keep your professional profile professional.

+1 - I'm seeing someone I know who is usually not short of work being arsey on linkedIn at the moment and it's only going to result in people not helping you out..

be best if you and your whining tory chums would stop wingeing about how unfair the world is to them.

That's a yes then!

My bum has firmly been on the bench since June.

With that in mind on a human level I am really sympathetic as I am going through something similar myself but it is a professional forum and I am not sure bearing your soul in such a way is a great career move. I have personally hinted I have been out for a while but not gone into the impact on my personal life.

Granted some of them are from the US where there is less of a safety net and, for all I know, might be more the done thing.
