I Think I Found a Job Hack

I found a neat "job hack" to search for jobs on LinkedIn. Many of you might have heard of it already, so I might be late to the party but it's too good not to share!

The squirrels didn't like the onions. Is it because squirrels don't eat onions? or do they just want to take a small bite? I'm not sure.
