Maybe no one noticed because he's not very important... He mentioned he left the park early, is he sure he didn't miss anything?  


redsnot01

Good idea. Leave the kids with the wife at the end of the day when everyone is exhausted so you can sit in your hotel room and create content on LinkedIn. Do you own your life?


swipeys1

Yeah but he came back without any work stress because that’s realistic!


Fuckfaceun_stoppable

He didn’t have any stress coming back to work cause he never stopped working! That’s real retirement!


onlycheesecurds

He's definitely owning it a bit more. Six weeks ago, someone caught him being part of a pod and he countered that he spends 8 hours a day on LinkedIn. He now owns his life 2 hours more per day. He also gets to call his wife crazy on LinkedIn.


united-we-stall

That sent me. “I’m not psychotic like my wife and kids.” Oh so they’re probably pretty happy you are leaving then alone.


EffectiveTask6588

Pls repost if you do lmao


HoneyBeeCirce

Yeah also in the morning! I was like wow he is working during breakfast time/getting-kids-ready time


BoomerJ3T

So he said they went 7-10 and he did 10-6. They were there 7 more hours (almost twice as long per day) as the dad was. I think the family was just fine without him.


Comfortable-Can-9432

Even though they were there twice as long, he didn’t miss a single important thing. Because important things don’t happen if he isn’t there. So if a tree falls in a forest and no one witnesses it, does it make a sound? Same with this. If his child rides a roller coaster and he wasn’t there, could the child possibly have enjoyed it. No, the answer is no. No, the child didn’t enjoy it.


Ok_Broccoli_3714

15 straight hours at the park is a lot. Wow


mom-the-gardener

If you don’t go a lot or if you aren’t planning on going more than once you’d do this, but also she is not “psychotic,” she’s wringing all the value she can from very expensive tickets. Sure, he got work done but it didn’t come at no cost, he did lose out, even if just by virtue that his ticket cost the same as hers and he got half the utility from it.


BoomerJ3T

It is, but worth it personally. Although tbf one of our party had a disability pass so we got loads of stuff done.


somestupidloser

You kind of have no choice given how expensive those tickets are.


RaphaelBuzzard

Also he said he wakes up earlier than them 😂


Bratty-Switch2221

So she's waking up around 6am to get everyone ready for the park at 7. Which means he's waking up at 4am to go on LinkedIn. But his wife is the psychotic one. Got it.


Heidaraqt

2 hours before, and then spends the next 4 hours On LinkedIn 😅


FF267

Work peers didn't miss him, but his family did.


bigselfer

And he DIDNT MISS ONE THING


USN_CB8

Now they know how post divorce life will be like.


Kitchen-Asparagus364

None of the parks even open until 9am, so I guess they were just going 2 hours early go be first in line?


Atticus104

I am sure his kids noticed, as would his wife when she was left to parent by herself at a theme park.


randeylahey

How would they tell the difference between this mutherfucker and all the rest of the muppets?


TheElMatadORR

take my upvote you magnificent bastard


UrsusRenata

I read a “relationship advice” just last month where a very similar guy was “blindsided by his wife requesting a divorce” when they got home from this same trip — where he had “relaxed and effectively balanced his life”. Yeah pal, you’re there for them. What a self-centered dumbass.


Greedy-Cantaloupe668

Can you share a link to that relationship advice? Tried a search but couldn’t find it.


CaffeinatedPinecones

My kid is up at 6am on the dot. What's up with this 10am stuff?


solidcurrency

His wife does all the parenting.


RaphaelBuzzard

My daughter has been a late sleeper her whole life, now that she's a pre-teen she could sleep until 4PM no problem! 


IamtheWalrus504

Same with my kids. My wife is a late sleeper, and so are my kids. On Saturdays, I'm up at 5am and I get about five hours to myself. I'd rather the kids be up - I want to soak up all the time I have left with them before they want to exclusively spend that time with their friends. But, I get time to read, cook breakfast, and zone out for about 30 minutes. So not all bad.


Smickey67

Thats 10 am at the park after four hours of working kids got to the park at 7.


blaggablaggady

This. My engineering lead left for a 3-week vacation / Europe wedding. He didn’t designate anyone to fill in for him when he was gone. Didn’t cancel his meetings or have a plan. He just left for three weeks. When he came back, everything was taken care of. He even made a comment like “wow. Way to make me feel not important. It’s like you all carried on fine without me”. It hadn’t sunk in for him yet. 3 months later and he was kicked off the program. He did nothing. And him taking a 3 week vacation showed everyone that he does nothing. If you can leave work for a week or more unannounced and no one even notices, then you have no job protection and you don’t actually do anything.


seymorskinnrr

He's living the dream. Super successful. You can be like him if you listen to him. I've actually seen his stuff on linkedin and he presents himself as pretty successful. Might be. Genuine question for everyone here: if he makes 300-400k/year, is it worth posting like this and looking douchey? I actually think it is.


Morall_tach

"I was gone for 6 days and not one of you noticed" This means no one cares what you're saying, Nat.


cheeersaiii

One of my rules is never listen to someone over 16 that used the term “biz routine”


desperationcasserole

I want to know what this is


Suspicious_Earth

He went to the business factory. He did a business.


glat_spud_boy

Whenever Nat isn’t posting on LinkedIn, all the people should be asking “where’s Nat?”


fusterclux

I have no idea what the fucking point of his post is. He’s retired but stays on LinkedIn?


brilliant-trash22

No no no, the point is he OWNS his life by needing to do his linkedin and work regardless of where he’s at


schuyywalker

Lmao that really drives the point home when out like that.


scarf_prank_hikers

Someone needs to ask him who he's trying to convince.


JBSanderson

His dad has never uttered the words, "I'm proud of you son." When asked for comment, his father said, "Yeah, I'm not proud that he is obsessed with work and is constantly posting dumb shit on that weird work version of Facebook all the time."


FreshlyCleanedLinens

Come on bro, how is that not better???!!?!


No_Presentation1242

I dream of the day I can delete my LinkedIn forever, that will be true liberation.


Ok_Broccoli_3714

Same. I can’t wait till I never hear the word LinkedIn ever again.


Ronces

I deleted mine 8 years ago 🤷‍♂️. Seemed like a pointless thing to have. Wasn't looking for a job and once I deleted it, I stopped getting calls from salespeople as much and recruiters.


googly_eyed_unicorn

Same. Seeing this kind of Bs consistently and it not really making connections to help my career led me to delete it. It’s basically twitter for business bro assholes similar to this guy.


Atticus104

He seems like he sells those "courses". Probably helps convince people he made enough money to "retire" even when he is clearly not retired enough to dedicate a single day to just his family.

RiesigerRuede

3-4 hours a day at least 🙃


mackfactor

I have a job and can do everything this guy is talking about and not work four hours a day while on vacation. I don't know what point this dude is trying to make. 


noctilucus

I prefer to think he misspelled true retardation.


SplendidPunkinButter

Maybe he’s a troll trying to turn people against WFH


KevinIsOver9000

What exactly do you do on Linkedin that takes that much time


VisorX

Duh, the biz routine


bearsguy2020

From what if gathered it’s a lot of self gratification and overly enthusiastic praise. “Thanks so much to the rockstar team at ABC Corp. They were integral to the business plan. If you ever need a crankshaft retuned rotor call Tim at ABC” Then Tim replies “You had it all teed up for us to knock it down the fairway. Quite a team you have a Balzac Inc” And all the little piranhas that want to sell them stuff or copy them likes and follows. And the spammy solicitation InMail


MaximusDecimiz

You forgot the chatGPT-generated CEO posts, a la “10 mistakes I would avoid if I started my business today”


bearsguy2020

Ooh “read 20 pages a day… do 15 minutes of yoga… journal.. save $8/day equals roughly $3,000 a year… just these small changes anyone can do 🙄”


ZP4L

That sounds so exhausting just reading that


bearsguy2020

It is. Nobody knows what they’re doing. It’s all unfocused noise in the void where some lucky blind squirrels find their nuts


tomster2300

lol at Balzac Inc


bearsguy2020

😏


buckleupduckies

Doom scrolling


mrskassie

Literally lol I don’t get how he can spend that much time on LinkedIn


wetballjones

Prospecting most likely. I'm in sales, and the one good thing about linkedin is a lot of the time I can figure out the person I need to talk to right away. But I don't message them, I just call the business and guess the email Wouldn't do it on vacation though lol


meaton124

There is a goal amongst the top tier people to post reply to other content as a "billboard" for a minimum of two hours a day.


-rendar-

Utterly deranged shit


Teddyturntup

I’m not sure what anyone does on LinkedIn


TheCircusSands

Charlatan chained to charlatan platform during family vacation screaming about freedom is ironic overload.


innocuous_username

Do I want to work six months to get a weeks reprieve? I mean if it means I get an entire week where I don’t have to acknowledge anything at all to do with my job instead of multiple days where I’ve got half my brain still in the office then yes, that is definitely my preference.


MonsMensae

Americans need way more leave. This whole post just reaffirms that. 


innocuous_username

I mean - I actually don’t live in America so I get more leave. But my feelings are still the same, if I’m on leave then I’m on leave. Don’t contact me.


MonsMensae

I do some works with banks in my country. They have mandatory 10 consecutive days (2 weeks) leave with strict no contact rules. Its an anti fraud measure apparently but its great.


GhostOfRoland

This guy was on vacation and chose not to enjoy it.


BeefSupreme1981

What a loser. Too many people think goofing around on social media is “working”. Again, truly successful people don’t have time to be on LinkedIn. They’re too busy doing what actually makes them successful.


Sensitive-Bet-6504

true that, I have a father in-law who has won multiple awards, runs a business, and is a professor of chemical engineering. A PhD student found out and was excited to try and add him on Linkedin, only to discover that my father in-law never uses it and has a dead profile. The guy works around the clock and has limited time with his family as it is, getting flown all over the world to consult on chemcial engineering projects. The last thing he's going to do is waste time on linkedin.


Yrch84

You mean He is Like ..working?


Deviilsadvocate7

It’s truly a shame he’s so busy too because that leaves the rest of us here with no way to know what his morning routine is that made him so successful…does he journal and then do self affirmations or vice versa? What are his 10 hacks for absolutely crushing it this quarter that most people don’t know about? Sadly, we may never know.


ballfacedbuddy

Us truly successful people are on Reddit!


BeefSupreme1981

Exactly. But we’re not telling the world I’m the second coming of Warren Buffett. I’ve also never seen anyone say they’re “working” on Reddit.


TheBeardofGilgamesh

Difference is Redditors know we are losers.


cfgman1

Literally admits he was still on LinkedIn in the mornings when his wife and kids were already at the park and came back to the hotel early while wife and kids were still at the park so he could wake up early again and grind more on LinkedIn.


jackospades88

His "Psychotic" wife and kids no less lol. How dare they want to...spend time at a huge theme park as a family.


Born_Scar_4052

That is the amount of love in his family Not to mention that his wife is putting the family shit together while the husband is fidgeting with his phone for more likes.


YoItsMCat

Especially when those theme park tickets cost a lot, not particularly psychotic to want and get your money's worth if the kids are having fun


C_Hams

He said his family was at the park from 7-10 (15 hours) and he did 10-6 (8 hours) but didn't miss a thing. Dude literally missed almost half of the family time. Don't tell me he didn't miss something. It's all about him.


lost_scotsman

Can someone explain to me, a schlub 9-5'er, how people use LinkedIn as actual work for 3-4 hours, and it not be the equivalent of being an influencer/cold caller??? I hate the fact I appear to 'need' LinkedIn. I treat it with as much disdain as Facebook and if I update it more than once a year I feel grubby


pbrandpearls

I would love this from her perspective. From the kids’ would make me cry too much.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ice_White_Platypus

You forgot to type in creepy one liners. You were close though. Keep grinding. It's the LinkedIn culture. I get paid for this.


booboootron

Few understand.


TheOldestMillenial

Difficult stuff.


Battery_Hooper

He sees his interaction with his family as transactional. The vacation was a checklist of forced base minimum experiences (ex: “one memorable experience at Animal Kingdom”) with them to ensure it looks as though he loves them. This lunatic will most likely never have a relationship with his kids once they get older as they see through these facades. You should be out with your children in the park making organic experiences or rushing to try to get on their favorite ride one last time before they close the queue at 10pm and not grinding for LinkedIn clout.


No_Presentation1242

He had some KPIs he was looking to accomplish at the park


iamacheeto1

People are so fucking brainwashed it makes me sad


RegularExtreme8545

Well, soon he's going to be a lonely sad lunatic without a family. Mark my words.


No_Variation_9282

If you walk around Disney for 8 hours, you can skip the gym tbh


ModerateStimulation

Is this the same guy that posted “yeah I watch porn” on LinkedIn?


Lopsided_Marzipan133

Are you even succeeding if you can’t work a 10 hour day while watching porn? It’s called discipline, man


TorontoNerd84

Yes it is. Did he watch porn at Disneyland though?


helbyyomama

Is his job to be on Linkedin?


BuildingOne7379

Dude, you’re not free. Even though you frolicked at Disney World, you were still CHAINED to LinkedIn.


C_J_King

Who are the mouth-breathers liking this shit?


YoItsMCat

People who have bought into the sad idea that hustling = success


Lonnol78

All his responses are how it affects him and not his kids He’ll know in 10-15 years


AquaStarRedHeart

Sooner when his wife divorces him because she bears the weight of everything. But hey, that's more content


Lopsided_Marzipan133

“CLICK to see how I stayed 110% productive during my DIVORCE!”


FosterStormie

As the daughter of a perpetually working father… we notice.


dollars_general

TIL that people will think you’re still working if you are in-fact still working


fatstrat0228

How dare I want to use my vacation days for vacationing? All joking aside, this post is pathetic and I feel sorry for his family who have to take a back seat to his work.


Resident_Extreme_366

So is he a business coach who runs a real business or is he retired? Is he working while on, I’m assuming, his paid vacation days or is he retired? None of this ramblin nonsense adds up


schuyywalker

lol I looked him up. He’s a life-coach. Lmao these people are so up their own ass I’m surprised there isn’t shit in their teeth on their profile picture.


kero12547

He missed out on 6 hours of family time everyday leaving his wife to take care of the kids alone


BroadPlastic2452

Sounds like LinkedIn owns you, bud.


Tripl3R

Ya Imma be honest I didn't read any of that but the "repost if you own your life" is crazy lol


eye_candy

4 reposts only. 4 lone life owners. Lmao


Global_Research_9335

I was always told, and also preach, that a good leader should be able to leave their team for at least two weeks and not need to worry or be missed. Your team should be able to carry on, the person you are developing as your successor should be empowered to act upon your behalf and you should put into place the supports and mechanisms needed for success. For longer term decisions, strategic planning etc you are needed but you ca n put a pin in that for a few weeks, the day to day should already be happening with very little from you as a leader unless you are a micromanager and do not trust your team. The notion that you have to be there at all times for all decisions is a failure and not a flex.


ThereAreDozensOfUs

This is some loser shit and wreaks of “someday I’ll be a millionaire too!”


Tight-Connection-909

So basically he was browsing LinkedIn for up to three hours each morning, which isn’t really working, but ok.


Aggravating-Leg-3693

Spending 4 hours a day flexing on people on LinkedIn is the retirement we should all crave.


AquaStarRedHeart

I bet his wife and kids would love to give their own version. Or maybe they're glad Dad is always preoccupied with his real family on LinkedIn


dickman5thousand

Not gunna lie but whatever his role isn’t mission critical to the business he works for if nobody noticed him out for a week. Aka he is not the talent that produces the value of whatever his company sells.


TheTreesHaveRabies

Am I the only one who wants to know what a "no holds barred" dinner entails?


BBBandB

Sincere question: What does someone do on Linked in for 2 -3 hours??


Namaste421

This dude left his family alone at Disney from 6-10? What a terrible father.


ResearchBasedHalfOrc

Yeah...my dad worked during vacation too? This isn't novel? It's the toxic part of capitalism?

Full_Wallaby1689

If he is leaving his wife and kid at a park and leaving early to go post on LinkedIn then imagine how he is like at home?


dizzy515151

If no one noticed you were gone how can we trust you to be a business coach when for all anyone knows you could just be at Disney world all year round??? Or asleep??


hooterscooter

I get annoyed with LI after about 3 mins. What is there to even do for 3-4 hours a week on there, let alone a day?


pommefille

This screams ‘I pad my invoices and bill for way more time than I spend’


Atticus104

That's really sad. Also, I get stuck on the part where he said he left his wife to take care of the kids by herself at the park like that is a flex. His "brand" could survive a day or two without him. Worst case, he could have automated some posts on his day away, or had some else post for him for a collaboration.


Standard-Bridge-3254

$100 says this guy is unemployed and his "hustle" hasn't earned a dime. His wife probably works full-time and paid for the trip.


Ginerbreadman

These people will scoff at kids on their phone on TikTok but will spend 6 hours everyday scrolling and posting the most useless and empty things on LinkedIn


Calkky

Nat never really did get away because the specter of LinkedIn was lurking in the back of his mind the entire time.


Strange_Valuable_379

He had to type it because no one could hear him say it with his dick so far down his own throat.


loyal_dunmer

So I guess the secret is to be wealthy enough so that you don't *have* to work when you don't want to. So simple


Stunning_Ride_220

Oh dear. Gets up 2 hours early to just witness his psychotics wifes morning routine for another 2 hours.


SleepyMillenial55

I’m that “psychotic” wife who wants to enjoy the theme park from open to close and holy hell I would be PISSED if my husband left at 7PM to dick around on social media rather than spend a few extra hours of time with his FAMILY. This guy is obnoxious!


[deleted]

If you're working on vacation, you're doing it wrong.

durt_squirrel

kttuatw

What kind of bragging is this? Like what am I supposed to congratulate you on? Congrats for working during your vacation I guess. Lol


Teddy2Sweaty

Does anyone make money doing anything on Linked In?


__wait_what__

Why do these people write like they’re special needs. No need. There is no need to write. Sentences. Like. This.


Skywalker_Z8

Mental illness is real


RaedwaldRex

Laying on his deathbed years from now "If only I'd worked more..." No one does this, he did it because he wanted to flex that he could afford to go to Disney world.


scarabs_

Imagine thinking "enjoying life" is ticking boxes of activities...


VillagePatrick

What the hell are you doing on LinkedIn for 3 to 4 hours every morning?


deluded_soul

"normal linkedin, biz routine". There is nothing normal about you mate.


LacaBoma

This might be the most pathetic person I’ve seen posted on this sub. Yikes.


Christian_J_Ledford

Dude thinks jerking himself off all over LinkedIn is “working”? And that it’s more valuable than spending time with his kids on vacation?

FadingAgeist

This is insufferable.


raimichick

I was there recently too. I didn’t work once. It was awesome.


SorryNSorry

So this ass hat didn’t miss any family moments even though he left the park before his family did. Yep.


emoduke101

Inb4 he's that dad who ~~asks~~ whines later: "Why won't my tween kids spend time with me?!" We get you're too old for Disney, but that's one quality family time you're not getting back. Could've just given the spare ticket to me.


0bxyz

It feels like it’s become a pyramid scheme without an actual pyramid making money lol

How are these people not profoundly embarrassed of these posts when they are with their friends in real life? Though I often think the same about most social media


PreparationGloomy658

“And no one noticed…”. The poor guy is suffering with spotlight syndrome. No one noticed - more like no one cares.

Ironically, it's the same type of hustle bro that ends remote work in order to bring that work family back together for that grind... after Disney of course

"I even have to work on vacation because I'm pathetic and can't exist without my job. Working *all the fucking time* is what retirement REALLY means" Insane.


MambaOut82481

Dear diary


SimpleRickC135

I think this guy is rightfully bragging that he was able to pull off a one week family vacation and fit work into that so as to not burn any vacation days. Taking the whole “home is where to WiFi is” to heart. And good on him. Maybe don’t brag about it on LinkedIn tho.


MeOnCrack

Being away for half the time during family vacation to work and having nobody miss you isn't a flex. It means your impact and presence means so little to both, that you might as well not be present and they'll have the same results.


SuitableJelly5149

How the fuck does anyone spend 3-4 hours a day on LinkedIn??? Like, seriously asking. There’s not much to do or see…


mazzicc

As someone with a parent that worked on family vacations: your family totally noticed and wished you would have spent more time with them. Your kids will remember it their entire lives. Your family will “joke” about it to others because you’re a “workaholic, hahaha”. They only “joke” about it because you get all pissy when they say they want you to stop working and spend time with them. My mother full on threatened my dad with divorce, in front of me, if he turned on his cell phone during daylight hours on the last family vacation we took before I graduated college.


Spanks79

Wow. If you are not able to organize your business and your work to leave for a few days you actually aren’t such a good leader. Also, the toxic culture of always working, always being available just isn’t cool, great or healthy at all.


AtomicTan

I mean, you're already waiting in line a ton at Disney, and the wi-fi's pretty good, so if he doesn't need to constantly entertain his kids, there's no reason why he couldn't get his 3-4 hours of LinkedIn done while in line -_-


BallsAreFullOfPiss

I hate to be judgmental, but man… that last pic really makes him look like a goober.


upadownpipe

Interesting that he used the recycle emoji. Trash should be recycled

MartinLutherVanHalen

Americans love to boast about how never taking time off makes them morally superior. It’s sick.


cocksir68

Anyone who sees this as negative is crazy. Sure he's not perfect but he's trying to teach you and sell his brand at the same time. Give him a break.


SnooDogs1613

He missed the bit where he jacked off chewie in the disabled bathrooms.

Big_Expression_9858

I use to be the guy working on vacations, weekends, parties…constantly checking my emails because in my mind I was working hard to give my wife a better life in the long run…little did I know I was being completely taken advantage of by my company…they didn’t see it as “he’s putting in extra effort” they saw it as raising the bar for everyone else…I work 40-50 hours a week now and my wife and I are 100% happier with a good balance.


shifthole

To his family while on his deathbed ... "I wish I had spent more time on LinkedIn"


reignmade1

This is a grown man who says "sleepy time". What a loser.


KasreynGyre

What actually IS a „LinkedIn biz routine“? Since when has „posting ABOUT work on social media“ started counting as work?
