Am I supposed to accept LinkedIn invitations from people I don't like/respect?

Been on the buyside for too long to remember how to kiss ass properly. Never was good at this actually...

BTW, not trying to humble brag that I'm important or popular. I'm not important.

What's the move here?

Well, are you planning to be a PM someday?
I have a friend who lives in the country, and it's supposed to be an hour from 42nd Street. A lie! The only thing that's an hour from 42nd Street is 43rd Street!
