I'm old enough to remember when it was called "Personnel". Then they changed it to "Human Resource" because it's less personal.

Now they are People People <barf>

My last company had a "Chief People Officer".

Did some over paid consultant come up with that?

I thought everyone knew this.
Hint: who pays HR’s salary?

Well hello, Captain Obvious!

Well, we know you’re not lying! Cringe sense of humor, poor reading comprehension and unable to write even a single intelligible sentence. Yeah, that tracks.

That's because it is the center of stupid.

Truly the dumbest people in any organization work in HR.

It is inappropriate for employees to use a company webinar about resiliency (or whatever the buzzword of the day is) as an opportunity to kvetch about their manager in front of the organization.

Of course HR isn't there to help you. They are paid by management to resolve issues and move people out. Just Google it:


"Why HR is not on your side?
HR is paid by the company to solve problems either between employees or with the company and its policies, says Williams. “If you have a problem with another employee, especially your manager, and you decide to involve HR, you're not enlisting someone on your side. Instead, you're involving the company in the issue."

HR's job is to back up management no matter what.
