I actually have the good fortune of being acquainted with such a guy in my present job. He is old school, as they say, and not one of the last to start work and the first to leave as are most HR people.

He is also expected to do other jobs for the company.

I had good ones until the early 1990s. I guess that is when “personnel” and “benefits” people became “Human Resources.” That is when we had to start attending “diversity” training. That is when every disciplinary issue had to be reviewed, starting with “what the person was” vs “what they did.”

I discovered then that I had been a suppressive white bastard for decades. I was told I should feel shame.

What I felt was pissed. I took it for two years and then found a new job.
