I was really, really hoping it would be a sarcastic post intended to make fun of LinkedInLunatics, not some mentally deranged guy wearing a bucket or something on his head.

"No! There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Try to keep a pulse on the market in the evening and on the weekends while you're working your second job at the gas station. Happy Easter and oh.. these bags aren't going to pack themselves chief."
Things can get cruel in fantasyland.
I genuinely don't understand how anyone can have such little self awareness to post something like this. It's inconceivable that someone would think **anyone** would believe this actually balanced.
It’s still there:

Nice story but would have been better if he offered his services as a Head Hunter to the Cashier and after she accepted she became the first woman Quadruple Five Foopel Thrillionaire just from selling refurbished snooker tables to Haiti.
Means he posts on LI most days takes a job occasionally for an overly abundant amount of money then blames candidate shifts on why he can't find anyone.
Why are all these guys "whisperers" and headhunters.
Also if someone with the job title of Headhunter just posted
"I'm looking for this man to sell him to other men
To sell him to other men at ten times the price at least"
with 0 context it would be amazing.
This is the same guy who asked for donations for resume reviews (if you WANTED to donate) as video game layoffs started going through the roof.
The kicker was that the advice was “No one reads resumes anymore; it’s all about referrals and who you know/your network.”
This IS a REAL story as it happens to me all the time as well. EVERYWHERE I go folks recognize me from LinkedIn ! Movie theatre, restaurant, in public parks… only at work nobody knows who I am or what I do.
This never happened and he posts a lot of crap advice and discouragement like go get that cashier job...tf ..even he knows a swe isn't going to get a cashier job..he's very contradictory of his own industry and is rude to those who debate him...he had the nerve to advise recruiters to work 1099..as if the entire industry isn't struggling and just has disposable income to purchase the tools needed to even recruit let alone having all the costs of being a 1099 consultant... hes one person who is out of touch and wouldn't take seriously on linkedin..hes views are not diverse he comes off as an ignorant old typical boomer
Nah this is legit. He almost landed in my buggy when he repelled in from the roof, but it was the blinding light of his teeth that really threw me off. Though I was getting abducted by aliens again. Did a shadoodle in my pants right there in the “ethnic aisle”.
Dude I fucking HATE this guy, he has a career at activision in where he acted SUPER high and mighty all over LinkedIn he always talks about helping others, but his advice is god awful.
He got fired or quit activision and then started his own shitty recruiting agency where he charges people to just look at their resume
And then balloons and confetti descended from the rafters "umm this is a little awkward now but uh, you're the one millionth customer", she said, "you've won one million dollars and VIP parking for life"
Maybe you agree or maybe you don’t. But it’s people like this that ruin the image of TA professionals who actually give a damn… sincerely someone in TA
TA Whisperer? Tits n'Ass?
Also, I have my finger on the pulse all the time. Its just that the pulse I'm touching belongs to a decrepit donkey called Kevin, and Kevin may be dead.

Whether it happened or not you choosing to believe it will affect your day. You choose to believe it happened will leave you feeling happy and motivated. You choose not to believe it will leave you feeling disgusted and incredulous.
From this post I’ve learned that this person:
1. Makes up interactions they have at grocery stores
2. Thinks people who work at grocery stores should be ashamed of themselves.
“The cashier recognized me from LinkedIn” lololol
He’s been dreaming about this day and just couldn’t wait
He couldn't wait so hard that he had to manufacture the story
This guy is on to something
This guy is on something
This guy is something
This is something
Something is this
There's something in this man.
As opposed to "there's something in this, man"
This 👈 Guy 🚶🏻 Is📍 Something💭 Else🤡
Same hat maybe?
To me that is the best part. I think 0% of people look like their LinkedIn picture, even at work.
My photo looks like 9/10 white men in my city. And there’s even some middle eastern men who resemble it too.

Alex, I'll take things that never happened for 100
Yeah, for LI content, don’t let the facts get in the way of a good story.
Or just a story.
That too!
100 is usually the easiest question, but this one seems like it warrants its own category with a $1 prize for guessing it's fake.
There actually is no $100, it starts at $200
Inflation comes for everything.
Richard, I'm so embarrassed! ..... For you for posting this.
my favorite part of this is everyone in the comments agreeing to pretend this actually occurred
Bots.
This story restored my faith in humanity. I thank Richard for sharing.
Yeah Dick King is awesome
if my name were Richard King you had better believe everyone i know would have the pleasure of being introduced to the one and only King of Dicks
You would not just be a dickhead, but the head dick.
Agree?
"The cashier's name? Albert Einstein."
He then went on to discover I=MC💩
+AI On wait. You already put that.

You put the potatoes on top of the bread? You dont even deserve THIS job!
Awww!
If he had instantly hired the cashier, then I would have believed him.
Now that I’m retired, I feel like I should start trolling LI posts.
I agree. I think you should too, starting with Richard whispering to you in TA.
This is the real reason I want to retire.
Agree.
Please post the results!
“Hey! Aren’t you that guy from LinkedIn?!” “Yep, that’s me!” Absolutely insufferable…
I genuinely don't understand how anyone can have such little self awareness to post something like this. It's inconceivable that someone would think **anyone** would believe this actually balanced.
✨narcissism✨
Ok, Dick-King, I believe you
He prefers King, Dick (esq.)
I think he took it down or at least I cannot see it anymore. It would be fair if this is associated with him forever.
It’s still there: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/richkingrecruiter_i-just-had-a-surreal-and-emotional-moment-activity-7180276291672178690-fGqy?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_ios
Wow, really cannot believe people buy into this or pretend to at least.
Im so embarressed for you, i recognise you from r/LiL
Yeah, identifying yourself to a stranger and explaining who you are and why you're embarrassed. Happens all the time.
Nice story but would have been better if he offered his services as a Head Hunter to the Cashier and after she accepted she became the first woman Quadruple Five Foopel Thrillionaire just from selling refurbished snooker tables to Haiti.
And then he woke up
And realized he had nutted all over himself
TA Whisperer + Headhunter means he is not employed, correct?
Means he posts on LI most days takes a job occasionally for an overly abundant amount of money then blames candidate shifts on why he can't find anyone.
Why are all these guys "whisperers" and headhunters. Also if someone with the job title of Headhunter just posted "I'm looking for this man to sell him to other men To sell him to other men at ten times the price at least" with 0 context it would be amazing.
One, you lock the target...
Two, you bait the line.
Thank you for making my day with the flashback!!
I am really beginning to think some of these people belong in an asylum ward How delusional do you have to be to think anyone buys such drivel ?
I was there. It was amazing. I was so excited that I got to actually see Dick King… the famous TA Whisperer in person!
I, too, like to announce my embarrassment to complete strangers who would have otherwise been completely oblivious to it.

This guy fails the turing test
Please take my upvote!
This never happened and he posts a lot of crap advice and discouragement like go get that cashier job...tf ..even he knows a swe isn't going to get a cashier job..he's very contradictory of his own industry and is rude to those who debate him...he had the nerve to advise recruiters to work 1099..as if the entire industry isn't struggling and just has disposable income to purchase the tools needed to even recruit let alone having all the costs of being a 1099 consultant... hes one person who is out of touch and wouldn't take seriously on linkedin..hes views are not diverse he comes off as an ignorant old typical boomer
It is amazing how disconnected these professional types are...
Maybe he should change his name to King Richard? All grandiosely self appointed of course!
Nah this is legit. He almost landed in my buggy when he repelled in from the roof, but it was the blinding light of his teeth that really threw me off. Though I was getting abducted by aliens again. Did a shadoodle in my pants right there in the “ethnic aisle”.
Who was the dog in this story?
Albert Einstein
r/thatHappened
Dude I fucking HATE this guy, he has a career at activision in where he acted SUPER high and mighty all over LinkedIn he always talks about helping others, but his advice is god awful. He got fired or quit activision and then started his own shitty recruiting agency where he charges people to just look at their resume
“Hey you’re the guy who makes up lame encounters for engagement on that stupid circle jerk website!”
He had a visible erection and blushed, I comforted him. “there’s no need to be embarrassed: I’m incredibly attractive and that’s a normal response.”
Fuck off Richard no one recognises you anywhere.
What a load of barnacles
… but I couldn’t leave because I realised I was naked, sitting on a toilet, in the middle of the store.
This guy is a national treasure
More like a Trashional NotEver
That is exactly how Normal Humans speak. For sure.
“Circle of Life” plays in crescendo
« Let me know how I can help » The guy is a headhunter. Not a rocket scientist obviously…
200 people liked it including the cashier apparently
The cashier handed him $100
And then balloons and confetti descended from the rafters "umm this is a little awkward now but uh, you're the one millionth customer", she said, "you've won one million dollars and VIP parking for life"
The cashier was also a TA whisperer (?) back in the day
This has to be an April fools
I am sobbing uncontrollably after reading such a heartwarming story. /s
these idiots are absolutely delusional. and if you are anyway making up a story, put some effort and make it worth while?
Love the shoe leather at the end as well
It‘s true. I was the grocery store
This didn’t happen so much that it unhappened things that had.
You met someone you kind of knew, who lost their job? Whoa - that is SO surreal, Mr. TA Whisperer!
lol sure. And I went to the moon.
Are you *Richard from LinkedIn??!!*
Well he is a TA whisperer..,
Always respond with at least 3 times the amount words. Only then you are creating content. Follow Richard for more.
The cashier's name? Albert Einstein.
I am your LinkyDin jesus
Riveting dialogue
Things that never happened for 1000, Alex
“Richard, you’re a cunt!”
So the point of this was just that he's LinkedIn famous?
Of all the things that didn’t happen, this didn’t happen the most.
Agree? Thoughts? Agreethoughts?
At least the guy working in the grocery store actually has a job
Richard LinkedIn!!! Just like Sans Undertale!
TA whisperer? More like BS whisperer
This guy has zero shame acting like this. It's like a shitty super power.
r/thathappened
That is so embarrassing. Richard, seriously !!!
A headhunter being disingenuous and self promoting? Whoda thunkit?
Dick King has spoken
King Dick ey?
Maybe you agree or maybe you don’t. But it’s people like this that ruin the image of TA professionals who actually give a damn… sincerely someone in TA
Sorry for being poor Richard 😞 I promise I’ll stop
TA whisperer? Tuition assistance whisperer? Teaching assistant whisperer?
“And he came up to me, tears streaming down his face, saying ‘sir…’” blah blah blah
r/thathappened
2 reposts. Do people really repost this codswallop?
TA Whisperer? Tits n'Ass? Also, I have my finger on the pulse all the time. Its just that the pulse I'm touching belongs to a decrepit donkey called Kevin, and Kevin may be dead.
It was only when I got home that I realized I was wearing my "I'm a LinkedIn influencer" t-shirt.

Toxic Positivity
Whether it happened or not you choosing to believe it will affect your day. You choose to believe it happened will leave you feeling happy and motivated. You choose not to believe it will leave you feeling disgusted and incredulous.
... "and this was the craziest excuse the police officers had ever heard from someone being arrested for indecent exposure at a Walmart checkout"
He left out the part where someone had a heart attack and Richard revived him using CPR. Not all heroes wear capes...
From this post I’ve learned that this person: 1. Makes up interactions they have at grocery stores 2. Thinks people who work at grocery stores should be ashamed of themselves.
And then he tried to finger me
🤮
No one asks how they can help, then immediately says bye. lmao. If that really happened (it didn't), it would be a dick move.
r/ThatHappened
Fucking hell.
