Networking

 

This morning checking my emails :

 
“Hi,
 
I was glad to meet you yesterday at the Web event. I hope to see you again next time. I would like you to invite you to join my Linkedin network.”
 

What a nice message, so polite and all. Except that I changed my plans that night – how unpredictable of me, and didn’t go to that event, therefore never met that guy. So I thought :

  • My identity was usurpated by someone networking in my back and using my personal email address.
  • The guy has a networking disorder. Symptoms show a compulsive tendancy to copy-paste similar messages and send to mailing lists of participants to an event.

Man, I feel sorry for you. Next time make sure you actually met the person.

PS I haven’t replied yet, should I?
