To be completely clear, I’m not making excuses. I still hate HR people. All I’m saying is that it’s a feature of capitalism, that turns people into shitheads. Sometimes against their wish.

I think I have the episode. I need to sleep now. If someone doesn’t post it by the time I wake up, I can make it.

Here you go.

I have a friend who used to work in HR at some point, before he decided to leave and rejoin college. From what he tells me, it seems like many HR people hate this shit as well. But they’re simply supposed to work like this. There’s this nebulous concept of what they should do, and they do it as a whole, even if most of the individuals don’t like it. The destruction of individual decision making, and any kind of critical thinking and discussion is an aspect of capitalism that isn’t discussed enough.
