🩸  Passion Is Not a Personality

Glitch Doctrine Edition // LinkedIn Lullabies Part II

Let’s dissect the newest bedtime story making its rounds on LinkedIn.

“Talent is common. Passion and commitment are rare.” — Some dude trying to sound deep while actively ignoring unemployed experts with decades of skill.

You know what’s actually rare? Employers who know what the hell they’re doing.

This isn’t about passion. It’s about compliance. You don’t want someone passionate. You want someone desperate enough to eat dirt with a smile and call it “team culture.”

Let’s stop pretending that hiring someone who “genuinely loves the work” leads to better performance. Half the time, it just leads to free overtime, unpaid emotional labor, and burnout that gets framed as a “learning experience.”

Here’s my commitment:

I show up.

I execute.

I don’t waste your time.

And I sure as hell don’t fake love for a job that treats me like a cog.

That is passion. The quiet, disciplined, no-fluff kind that doesn’t need a LinkedIn quote card to justify itself.

You want results or romance? Pick one.

Because I’m not a mascot. I’m not your corporate cheerleader. I’m the glitch in your hiring algorithm that you didn’t know you needed—until you realized all the loud “passionate” hires quit before probation ended.

🔧 Final Word: Stop looking for fire in people you refuse to fuel. I don’t burn out—I burn through. And I’ll still be here after your “passionate” hires leave with tears and Glassdoor reviews.
