Before I became a developer I was a banquet manager and I've had numerous colleagues from my former career endorse me for software skills they can't possibly know I have. Though I do get a chuckle when one endorses me for 'Java' as I always imagine them thinking "yeah, he knew a lot about coffee" As presently implemented the endorsement system is rather pointless, but I do think there's some potential for improvement in making it more meaningful. Perhaps make it more like the recommendation system where you'd be required to actually write something instead of just clicking a button.
