    Thank God I'm a cynical and paranoid muck about...to a certain extent.
    Especially when it comes to Startup HR.

    I always make sure I record and take screenshots of all my efforts and completed documents.
    WHY??
    Because there's often disconnects, glitches, miscommunication and otherwise
    in going through the process.

    HR can be anal, obstinate and rigid...or just not one hand knowing what the other is doing.
    Managers ask questions, status updates from YOU ...and want to know why you haven't done things (even if you did)

    For example...
    I went through the whole setup of signing off on ALL the documents they wanted done...it said 100% complete. (5 of 5 documents)
    I took screenshots of this.
    BUT
    Later a HR rep asked why I hadn't completed everything...including my I9 (which I did)
    I went in...and sure enough, it was at 89%.
    There was one more document to be done...they had added it. (6 of 6)
    It was easy enough to be done and sign off.
    And I made sure to snapshot this too.

    Then I copied BOTH sets of snapshots to work for refrerence
    Told the HR person it was done
    And attached the snapshots to her...as proof. (because obviously there's a glitch in the system...OR it's a part of protocol...but they just don't tell others for some masochistic reason)

    Funny, I'm so diligent and don't throw anything away for work.
    But I'm a lot less diligent in my personal life ( but I still don't throw ANYTHING away)
    Can't tell you how many times I've had to refer to this.
    Even more than 10 years later.
    (such is the life with background checks)

    I've started a process of digitizing everything...and making backup copies)
    Thinking of getting a PT person to do this...bit by bit. (something a kid or newbie could do for cheap)

    Geez. :rolleyes:

    Life was much simpler in the 70's and 80's and 90's, HR was Personnel....( are people really resources?)
    No computers, architects drew plans on paper and made blueprints....so glad to retire in 1990...(couldn't handle learning CAD)

    The amount of completely senseless drama the average person is capable of is fucking mind-boggling. Just causing drama for the sake of drama.

    Fuck me sideways.

    I'm convinced most of the time it's because they are bored and are looking for any sort of mental stimulation and/or attention, whether positive or negative.

    Otherwise I honestly can't understand how all these little nitpicky and entitled arguments even come about.

    Was thinking about this today. God killed everyone except Moses and his family. God exterminated cities. God's agents wiped out thousands of people. God turned lot's wife to salt for looking back. God has promised to kill everyone on earth. Again. And he is supposed to be the good guy?
    If I walked around saying "at some point, I'm going to fuck you all up, I promise", people would stay away. Or at least not worship me. I guess people just have bad judgment. Heil Trump!
