Is President Obama a banker? #linkedinfail
[edit: better quality video]

LinkedIn thinks so. I noticed a week ago that “Someone in the Financial Services industry from Washington D.C.” had been viewing my LinkedIn profile, the top hit was the POTUS and Chief financial services officer – I guess to make things less political they threw in John McCain as the 2nd and Hillary 3rd result for good measure.[fail#1]
You will also note that there are no individuals in the results that fit the Financial Services industry [fail#2].
I guess you can argue since we bailed out Citi and others that does indeed make President Obama banker in chief according to LinkedIn.
File this as “Thing that took away 5 precious minutes of my day”
Cheers,
