Time for another certification this brand new year I guess – DIVORCE
In 2025, my husband divorced me.
Here’s what it taught me about…..
I pity the husband. This lady sounds exhausting to be married to
This is a conversation for a therapist not the internet
Btw a certification is just a series of video and a final exam. I think I get 5 per year and it’s more like a chore than an accomplishment.
If she’s already so insufferable towards her own husband god knows what she does to her employees
Stacey needs to realise that some people are too busy doing their job to be doing bullshit certifications and earning meaningless “awards”. Development through experience trumps all else in my opinion.
Lost count of the humblebrags and not-so-humble brags in this one. Also over/under for the divorce is 15 months
Her husband actually replied to her LinkedIn post
Imagine making up interactions with other people and still coming across as the cunt.
I win trophies and play guitar in my imagination.
CEO – Hacker in Heels – is the most girlbossy thing to ever girlboss its way into a room full of girls.
This the same type of woman who organizes that horrific linkedin dance video that was trending a few months ago.
Just yuck. This is the kind of shit that sets women back – how do people not grok that?
Anecdotally, I’ve noticed that the people who chase certificates and awards are usually not very good at their jobs. When I see someone with a bunch of certificates I see that as a negative.
ETA: I’m in marketing and marketing certificates are dumb. I understand they may have actual value in other more technical fields.
This isn’t a career thing.
This is a personal mental health thing.
She is looking for external validation to justify herself as a professional.
This usually comes from insecurities. This is a defense mechanism in the face of imposter syndrome.
That is the thing she needs to sort out for herself.
That being said. There is absolutely nothing wrong with having professional goals every year. That’s fine if people want that life. That’s fine for her. She wants to climb the corporate ladder. That’s fine. Good for her!
Doesn’t mean everyone else has the same goals in life.
For example, I’m an engineer. It is common in engineering for a lot of people to just want to be an engineer. And they don’t want to move into management. Sometimes they just want to make stuff they aren’t even looking for more parents. In fact some companies don’t do patents. (That’s a whole other discussion) So they don’t even look for that for accomplishments.
And that is fine too.
And other people I know, they don’t care at all. They work to live they don’t live to work. A job is a source of income and nothing more. They prioritize life outside of work.
That is also a fine way to live.
Looks like she tried to defend herself: “Read the full post. Check your biases, assumptions and projections. Go back and read it again”.
I did, you’re a lunatic and I feel bad for your husband.
Sounds like a real LinkedIn lunatic
When you do things right, people won’t be sure you’ve done anything at all.
This is pathology, not ambition.
LinkedIn is such a weird cesspit of unhinged, quasi-professional self-fellating doucheposts.
Husband could work at a hedge fund or be a FAANG engineer or similar making bank and that could all be true, what a weirdly specific list of things to evaluate.
I guarantee this lady is the “CEO” of a company with 0 real employees. These “boss babes” on LinkedIn all follow the same script.
I don’t know lady maybe some people just want to work, make money, and go back home.
“I need constant validation to feel worthy.
How do people cope being so lazy & worthless?”
As a woman who’s been in her field many years, I’ve been fine with not getting a new cert or whatever else she’s whining about. I got one of my certs last year in AWS solutions architecture and it did nothing for my career. It was not worth the effort I put in for it.
Why do they all type like this?
I don’t get it.
Makes no sense.
Maybe it’s to sound smart but it’s fucking annoying.
There is so much to unpack.
Certified LinkedIn Narcissist..
Poor husband .. guys life is a nightmare.
Sounds like a perfectly happy, loving and normal relationship.
Sat across the table asking him why his whole year was apparently useless and pathetic in her eyes.
Taking notes on the reply for Linkedin fodder too of course.
I had to look her post up. Turns out she was saying it as in she wants to be like her husband. Terrible writer and did not convey that message at all. Guess that’s why she does cyber security and deals with computers and not people 🤣
What’s hilarious is her husband is active Navy
