social media, or something

No, LinkedIn, I am not going to accept "endorsements" for skills that I do not in fact have. One of them is a thing that I have never done in my life.

Yes, people are trying to help, but having to answer an email from someone who says "I see you have copywriting experience. Tell me about it" with "actually, I don't" isn't going to get me work. It's just going to waste my time, and the hypothetical recruiter's, and possibly make me look bad.

Turns out if you hover over the list of "skills and endorsements" there is an edit symbol by each thing, and if you click to edit that thing there is an X to delete it if desired.
