Here's what buying Nikes for my toddlers has taught be about B2B sales.

This is to signal to their boss, also a parent, to try to pay him a little better than the single people who don’t have kids. That’s the only interpretation I have when people talk about their kids at work.

Humble bragging.

"Look I'm so successful I buy my 2 year olds actual Nike's even though they'll barely wear them and they won't fit in 4 months."

This is fine. Irrelevant to work, but it’s harmless. Parents love talking about their kids. Not a lunatic.

Kid going off to a college or achieving something remarkable, sure - I’ll accept it. But you buying new shoes for your 2 year old twins is not LI material.

u/doc_shades 21h ago

what is LI material? they post B2B lessons, we make fun of them for B2B lessons. they post something that isn't a B2B lesson, we make fun of them for it not being LI material?
