Hello Tumshie, how you bin?

I reckon this post is meant to throw us off the scent!! You and Tumshie have both been conspicuous by you absence and both just reappeared at the same time ?

Maybe the terrible twosome will bring @Mike the Boilerman back with them ... I think they hid him in a box somewhere.

We three set-up a new forum, but nobody else came. Me and Tumshie decided to come back. Mike said he was right behind us........

Are you going to share it with the rest of us, instead of that unlikely tale you posted?

I think the idea of calling it "Human Resources" rather than "Personnel" was basically to enable management to treat people n the same way they would treat other required stuff, like tables and chairs.  It depersonalises the process, thus making it easier to treat people as things rather than people. Which is why almost all modern personnel management is appalling, and why, in general , the human resources despise and detest their owners.  It explains why zero hours contracts have become acceptable, why benefit sanctioning for ludicrous reasons is acceptable etc etc.  When people have no more value to you than a filing cabinet, and sometimes less, that's when you have a human resource.

Just thought I'd mention it.
