It's been a long, tough, and cringeworthy battle, but I fear we may have found the final boss of LinkedIn sh*tposters. We've gritted our teeth at the various 'inspirational' stories that totally happened, and been blown away by the sheer dumbness of every person who describes themselves as a "thought leader". We've traveled the distance down this dystopian road to finally arrive at Tony Fernandes, CEO of Malaysian airline operator Capital A.

Tony has been subject to some viral scrutiny recently thanks to a post he put up about dealing with a stressful week. Claiming that a coworker had suggested a massage for him to chill out, he not only chose to enjoy this during a management meeting — he also posted photographic proof to everybody's favorite professional platform.

It seems like the reaction was not the one he was expecting, with many being baffled at this strange professional choice. I don't think the little guy needs any more reminders about how much cushier it is for those at the top.

Meaning he was possibly in the teams meeting. So was camera on or off? It would be very distracting If i see my boss or my colleague topless during the teams meeting. Apa bende sial die ni!

    Font - Shantanu @shantanub 1d ● Couple of things: 1. I can bet his top mgmt are mostly men. 2. Imagine the backlash is a woman CEO posted a pic of being on a VC while getting her hair or makeup done. The names she'd be called! 3. This is nothing but an arrogant display of power and impunity, not some swag.
