    For *, you despise HR, those fucking corpo muppets that will attempt to stab you in the back at every opportunity.

    Remember rule of acquisition #48:

    The bigger the smile, the sharper the knife.

    Never forget, HR is your enemy.

    People a re starting to catch on that HR isn’t some neutral arbitrator but really just corporate goons who will back stab you.

    I guess this lack of trust is starting to get to them.

    I’ve never made fun of hr, never seen a reason to. Also I have the feeling, that they’ve very much my health in mind and are on my side more than the employer.

    But I live neither in the USA nor India, so different rules, different culture.

        Surely they have their own dystopian capitalist modus operandi, but just as a factoid:

        HR is actually called Personalabteilung in my language (personnel department) and I am personnel.

          Reasonable name for a society that doesn’t consider workers objects. That was actually the most common name for it in America before neoliberalism started neoliberaling.

    Why is she listing responsibilities of HR and asking us to feel grateful about them? Why do they act self-important?

      The HR industry exists so that an entire subset of the workforce is dedicated to protecting corporate interests from the workforce

      They’re like “gays for Republicans” who don’t get why everyone seems to hate them

        What’s funny is that no one wants to be in HR, it’s just that’s where they end up and they have to play it like it was not them settling for what they can get.

    “Waiving the notice period” my ass. It’s wild to me how this idea that it’s required to give notice when you’re quitting a job is so ingrained in society.

    It’s a courtesy you can extend if you want to ease the transition for the company or leave on good terms, but it is absolutely not required.
