I like you, always have. I do know that you love stirring the pot. You got me, I did omit a few things from my story to stop what was already IMO a giant wall of text from becoming even bigger.
You're talking to a group of people who willingly read shitty fantasy stories that serve as backstories for even shittier characters in a text-based game. I, for one, would like to encourage you to write as much as your heart desires -- as long as it leads to a more fulfilling read (stories, for me, tend to be more fulfilling than half-stories, or halfingories as Matrik calls them).

The situations I described are accurate and factual - and yes I would consider our HR dept completely incompetent.
The thing that bothered me the most about this entire situation that I described was that the only person to be fired over the situation I talked about was my old boss. A 62 year old with 30 years with the company. Likely, as a result of him not documenting the prior (multiple) incidents of this individual flying off the handle with people. I mentioned the 2 incidents I witnessed, and I have been told there were more. The entire situation really sucked, and I have never been able to make peace with it.
Think about it -- he is 62 and he failed to document multiple incidents of assault and belligerence. HR might think his sharpness is deteriorating. Furthermore, his documentation of the events could have thwarted future attempts of XYZ to rub his big, gay, throbbing words inside of everyone's mouths. Maybe he should have been fired, I don't know. What I do know is that we both agree your HR department is incompetent, so something should be done about it.
Here's a fun one: embed some spyware into a Microsoft Word document called "Resume.docx". Make the resumé highlight all of the key features needed for some open position in your department. Email the resumé to the HR department and see what happens.
You won't be the first person to do this, but you might be one of the first to do it to your own company on purpose.
pls respond
