My friend did not include our 2 summers working at Baskin Robbins during HS on her LinkedIn profile

This thread is the best. I'm sick and feeling miserable and it made me smile for the first time all day. Thanks OP.

It was in 1979 and 1980. But many of the skills acquired are still very useful in the broader service sector.

I fully agree. I believe you should contact your friend's current employer and expose her. That will teach her.

You need to learn to MYOB. You have too much free time on your hands to worry about what your friend includes on her resume. Worry about yourself.

We were very busy all summer long and served everyone from tourists staying at nearby hotels, to baseball teams, swim teams, soccer teams, birthday parties.
It was a very demanding job.
To now act as if none of that ever happened is very pretentious of her.
All she does now at work is sit in front of a computer all day.
We were both at the bottom of the barrel once.
Our boss (the owner) was a major asshole at times.

Get a life, you poor thing.

Resume-shaming.

You've got me. Off to add my stint at the Bethesda Crown Books in 1982.

Thank you for the reminder. I was one of the main characters in a bilingual school show around 1980, will add that to my LinkedIn page.

OP, if you have documentary evidence, I would send copies and an anonymous letter to her HR's department.

Perhaps she cherishes that time, and uses the stories from her employment there to liven each job interview she's ever had? It's not a slight to you or the position, OP.

I learned a ton from my jobs as a bartender and a server at a country club. I worked hard, and mostly enjoyed my time at those two jobs. But they're not on my resume because they have nothing to do with my current career, or careers I'm looking to have in the future. I sure talk about my time there a lot, and would bring them up in an interview if relevant.

You sound cognitively impaired, OP.

However hard you worked at BR, employers are not going to believe that it was a demanding or intellectual job, therefore people are not going to add this to their resume if they have other more relevant/appropriate work experience. It doesn't mean they didn't enjoy their time there or that they've forgotten you (which is what you're worried about?).

And if you think BR is stressful, try working in an emergency room.

Perhaps op got permanent brain freeze from too much junkie ice cream.

Do trolls get paid?

Only the best ones. But, to be credible, you need to disclose your experience on your LinkedIn profile.
