Block or report a user

This is real work, not a feature someone invented — it comes from real job ads and real questions people asked. Below are four ready AI prompts: get it done, make it easy for the next person to say yes to, work out the right move when you are stuck, and stop it coming back.

Block and report the account that sent me harassing messages from user Thomas Gray and remove any of his comments from my posts; confirm the block so he cannot view my profile or send messages and give me the screenshot of the offending message for HR.
when the reply comes backPush once: ask it to sharpen the weakest part, and to say what it assumed. Helpful?

Before I block and report Thomas Gray for harassment, surface whether he’s in any shared groups, whether mutual contacts might see the report, and whether his messages violate harassment policy explicitly; flag potential evidence we should capture and make a concise report summary I can send to HR.

I received a harassing message from a contact.
Thomas Gray messaged me angrily and used personal insults after I declined a meeting. I’m afraid he’ll escalate or that reporting will blow back through mutual industry contacts. Should I block and report now, document and warn him first, or quietly mute and collect evidence? Recommend the action that protects me professionally and legally and explain the likely repercussions of each choice.
when the reply comes backPush once: ask it to sharpen the weakest part, and to say what it assumed. Helpful?
DBecome — change the patternI avoid reporting or blocking abusive members because I worry about industry fallout, and then…+
I hesitate to report abusive users and later face repeated incidents.
I avoid reporting or blocking abusive members because I worry about industry fallout, and then the same people harass me again. What habit will stop this drain: a clear threshold for harassment, an evidence-capture routine, or a delegated reporting step through company security? Recommend one practical policy I can adopt and the steps to follow when it happens.
when the reply comes backPush once: ask it to sharpen the weakest part, and to say what it assumed. Helpful?

Questions people actually ask

honest answers, no sign-up

Every task here was seen in the real world. Someone doing the job named it, a real job ad asked for it, or a lot of people asked about it online.

If nothing real showed a task, it is not on the page. That is the whole rule.

They are the same job approached four ways, because what you need depends on where you are.

Get it done today. Make it easy for the next person to say yes to. Work out the right move when you are stuck. Learn the pattern so the job stops coming back.

For most of these jobs it can carry the heavy thinking - draft it, sort it, check it, rehearse it with you.

It cannot sit in your chair, take the blame when a number is wrong, or notice what nobody wrote down. Let it do the first 80%. Keep the last 20% that is truly yours.

No. Copy any prompt and paste it into the AI you already use. No account, no score, no wall in the way.

Any of them. The prompts describe the work rather than naming a product, so they are not tied to one assistant.

That is also why they keep working when you switch.

Change it freely. Every prompt is a starting line, not a rule.

Put in your real numbers, your real names and your real deadline. The more you make it yours, the better the answer comes back.

The tasks come from real job ads, published job data and the questions people ask in public forums.

The steps come from LinkedIn's own documentation, with practitioner sources for the traps the manual does not mention.

Push once. Ask it to sharpen the weakest part and to say what it assumed.

Most wrong answers come from a missing detail rather than a bad prompt - tell it the thing it could not know.
