The posts are deliberately cryptic but I do have contacts on LinkedIn who DM me to ask if the comments are about them. And some people now are positively asking me to include comments about them!

I also understand that there is an avid readership outside my own connections – with people saying that they can’t wait for Friday evenings – when the posts usually land – as they set them up for the weekend!

So here is a special edition of LinkedIn Learnings for Recruiter readers:

• A rich supply of recent pickings – definitely an up-turn in fortunes.
• The look on the child’s face when he had to watch his parents dancing at a school event – priceless. It reminded me of an 8Os horror film. Watch out mum and dad!
• Should we be interested in a dog’s birthday?
• The life coach really is alive – there’s motion footage.
• I hate camping. Sharp sticks in eyes are more comfortable.
• Can your life be in a mess without alcohol?
• “I know the recruitment industry inside out,” says the person who hasn’t spent a day working in it.
• Don’t forget: one famous legal case makes you a legend.
• Do you need a pop-up stand in your own office to remind you which company you work for?
• All eyebrows look the same these days.
• Dogs really do resemble their owners.
• It appears more recruiters than the average like to spend their time in very cold water. Why?
• Let’s be careful out there. One of these days you’ll get caught out.
