It is important to remember that HR departments are not there to help or protect workers in any meaningful way; HR exists to protect companies from their workers.

Gotta go thru the process, tho, even if it is excruciating :/

I was a Union worker. But being a union worker at a military base is shit. The pay is great, by the physical labor is horrible. And complaining to HR is like complaining to kindergartners. They don’t or excuse me, hardly reply, they don’t keep their promise, and the union managers treat workers like soldiers. Now I’m all about discipline, but treating your workers like Marines is no way to motivate workers. I’ve done it for 10 years. It’s painful.

Vulfy, I both love, and find it difficult to believe (yet still love!) that your new job is somehow /less/ painful.

In Canada, at least, yer parent company does not seem to be improving much (still have at least double the reported injury rate, and double again the serious injury rate, above the national averages) :O
