a resource for humanity

How do ordinary folk decide that they want to work on HR {Human Resources}? Maybe they don't. Maybe the only people who choose an HR role as a career are those who have no empathy for others, or those with a narcissistic personality. I've come to the conclusion that there must be 'essential' criteria to be ticked off when people apply. One will be that, much like the miserable woman on the bus, they must be a misery guts. I expect they're encouraged not to smile at interview. Perhaps they never smile. Maybe babies who are born with no smiley gene are forced to study towards a qualification in HR shenanigans. Regardless, it just seems odd to me that anybody would choose a career in HR, a role which is fundamentally hated by most employees. And why am I bringing this up today? Because I have my your job is at risk even though we told you it wasn't meeting with HR. And my beautiful Italian friend is now stressing me out. *sigh*
