Boss brags on how he helped employee impress his date on social media. Netizens react

An employer’s humorous LinkedIn post is going viral on Reddit. Ken Cheng, a popular stand-up comedian, recently shared an insanely hilarious post on LinkedIn where he claimed that he made a difference in his employee’s love life. Cheng humorously revealed how he inadvertently became an icebreaker for his employee and his date.

“One of my employees, Sean, was on a first date and it wasn't going so well. He went to the bathroom and texted me for advice. Most bosses would say this is a breach of boundaries, but I stopped reading to my son to call Sean immediately. He wanted to give up and go home. No, Sean," I said. "There is no deal that's impossible to close. Just be honest with her." He got back to the table and told her he was nervous so he called his boss (me),” wrote Cheng.

Cheng went on to reveal that they discussed him and his witty posts on LinkedIn and that broke the awkwardness on their date.


“Become such a great boss that even the mere mention of working for you gets your employees laid,” Cheng concluded with flourish.
