Reality vs. LinkedIn

Reality: Earning a standard professional certificate. LinkedIn: I am ecstatic to announce my wild adventure filled with physical and mental challenges. First, climb a 10,000-foot mountain, survive in the wilderness for three weeks, and debate the merits of pineapple on pizza. Next, solve complex equations, memorize the periodic table, and make friends with a grizzly bear in a room with a ticking time bomb. Whew, what a challenge to earn my certificate and differentiate myself from the 15% of professionals in my field that may not have this highly specialized certificate.
