HR

[pissclams]

i think it would have been better just to be a pain in the ass to your manager so he'd want to transfer you to something you are qualified for.  like handing me my order at the drive thru.  he-he. he-he.  PWNT.

HR chicks are super cool when you get them away from the HR lair and get them drunk.  They have the best stories.

Working in any corporate setting is terrible

I did it for the last 13 months, basically 13 months of  .

what would you consider not corporate?  Small biz under 50 employees, self employed? 

[Institutional Control]

I work for a company with about 350,000 employees. Is that corporate?

HR people are accountants who are bad at math.

[michigancat]

There are good corporations and bad corporations to work for. it's the same for small businesses.

i meant being a cubicle drone and not mattering in the overall picture.  not about the size of the company.

[Emo EMAW]

It's okay to not matter as long as you're making bank and you're happy.  And actually just the second one.

being a cog does not make me happy.  i don't care about money (to a certain point), honestly.

I didn't care about $ until I got a journalism job and I was like "eff, it's kinda important to live". Best of luck, chum.

Are most people in media dead? Would you have died if you stayed in media?

i lived for a long time on less than what you probably make.  and i was happy until i started not liking my job.  which is why i'm in school now to get a different job.

Had "interview" with HR today.  She sort of grilled me for a while, like she was testing the strength of my case.  Then, she was like, "Okay, I think there are some questions here that need to be answered.  So, with your permission, I'll talk to your manager." Then, she was telling me how she was plotting some story so it didn't sound like I was calling in to complain, that I just had questions about being written up or something.

When she first called yesterday to set up an appointment, she was all like, "Can you talk? Do you need to go to another location?"

You gonna bang her?

I feel like rent and student loan payments are important. Hard too be a valued individual in this society if you can't complete those two operations. I get asked everyday if I miss it, but the truth is, "no"! No one cares about "your call" and it wasn't worth working a 2nd job just so ppl could talk crap on you for your current position. It's better to do it on the side when you can enjoy it for hobby.

But lots of people are in media and pay rent and student loans off without second jobs.

I understand that bud, but I've never been in that position. I grew up in two bankruptcy's in the fam. I hold tight. Had an opportunity to intern w/ espn on my jr summer, but had to turn it down (unpaid). We all come from different places.

You have to feel ownership in what you are doing. But being a small cog doesn't prevent you from doing that. I work for a super big global company and love the crap out of it. What happens in a certain market in a certain geographic area is mine. I own that. Also makes me better at my job to feel that way I think. Just take whatever it is you can influence and make it yours and take pride in it being good. That's really what you should be doing no matter what size of cog you are or how big your company is.

The one corporate job I had there were rules regarding facial hair and color/brightness of dress shirts. I never understood why the 1 homosexual male was allowed to have a goatee and wear neon colored shirts everyday

Maybe you should have called HR and informed them that you are bisexual or something. Then you could have worn whatever you wanted.
