It would be weird if the boss won't accept it...
Nope.

Why haven't you added and what is your relationship with your boss like?

My boss super elite or something:

Harvard graduate
Already founder of 3-4 companies
Can't be more than 35
Easily earns yearly 6 figure income

Me? 23, just starting out in the corporate world, with finance degree from Nowhere University!

Clearly the boss is a success and my integration with the boss' network would probably dilute that success..?

Your Boss made money by doing what you want to do which is network with other people - add him.

Thanks! I basically restated the company's Income statement and balance sheet. I guess any Auditor could do this job but I would prefer calling my role as that of a finance analyst.

Auditor = boredom

BAAM it took her only 40 odd days to accept my invitation!! Haha

anyways now I'm just racking my head to figure out if you should send a quick "thank you for accepting my invitation"! This is some serious test of nerves hahaa..

First off LinkedIn isn't the true network, you are the corporate equivalent of the guy who thinks if he adds a girl on FB and she accepts it means she likes him
