HR doesn’t do any productive work, for the most part. Not real sure what they do besides insurance and compliance issues. No workplace, less need for most of them.

I respectfully disagree...and no I'm not in HR.

Over many years I've seen HR's "behind the scene" activities and have come to have great respect for them. You know that high-performing sales guy who's been looking down secretary's shirts for a while? They found a way to can his butt without severance AND without a lawsuit AND without the secretary quitting or suing the firm. They are the ones who successfully ease out despicable employees. They perform due diligence on prospects and find out (somehow) that the guy you want to hire is actually a narcissist with a wake of carnage behind him.

Don't f with HR. They're not all bad and they're kind of more frightening than the legal dept.

As a manager, I’ve come to appreciate the HR department. I’m sure they’ve kept me out of court a number of times over the years!

Guess I can see where your head’s at with that reply. High performing pervert? How about Karen who Can’t Understand Normal Thinking? The one who gossips from the parking deck through meetings every moment in the break room and back through the door at 5.

Social constructors such as yourself always have a “tell” if you watch or listen enough.

AKA corporate Stasi. In company I worked at 15 years, HR Commissar started out as owners Admin Asst. Dropped her Police Officer husband to be concubine/advisor. Acted as a Legal advisor with paralegal training

Her latest contribution was to be hard line against UFCW in request for raise which a number of competitors agreed to. Well, guess what, workers leveraged COVID policy stating they were exposed and could not show up. Resulted in missing many order. A former boss at competitor contacted me about process this company utilizes for manufacture ( outside NDA disclosure envelope-not personal its business) Getting a consulting gig at expense of former company-Their potential loss of millions due to woke corporate Stasi HR b**CH advice

They are the ones who successfully ease out despicable deplorable employees. They perform due diligence on prospects and find out (somehow) that the guy you want to hire is actually a Trump voter, so no.

Fixed it.
