Do they get special training on how to lie with a straight face?
I know a couple hr people personally, and they speak in a kind of coded manner at work. Some of them will legitimately try to help you out, but of course the nature of their profession means they can never be a true ally. Not for long, anyway.
I've been friends with HR people at a number of jobs. They generally party hard. I've also always had the understanding that if they have to walk me we'd be professional about it. I've never been let go.
Yeah this matches my experience. HR person is always the one to have a bottle of whisky squirreled away for a good time.
I've been let go twice. It's shitty, but I realise they have very little power in a situation like that.
This is why I have so far refused to be a people manager. I'm not going to be able to emotionally handle laying someone off.
Same, I couldn't take it. It's hard to be in that position without feeling like a traitor.
Actually both times I got laid off my managers took the day off to hide while HR did their wetwork, only reaching out later to gush about how bad they felt.
Kind of cowardly tbh, but I get it—that's why we aren't managers.
It's a prerequisite to get the job in the first place.
