When people (inevitably) retaliate against for you going to HR, if the labor laws in your state support it, you can file a lawsuit against the company and they’ll usually settle out of court for a tidy sum of cash. I don’t remember what I saw it on but this one dude was talking about how that’s what he always does. He gets a job at some factory or something, goes into the breakroom and someone’s always talking about something sexual regarding their personal life, he says “I don’t want to hear that” and they always repeatedly fuck up, he goes to HR about it, HR doesn’t do what they’re supposed to and the person reported retaliates and then he sues and they settle out of court with him and he gets another payday.
When they say they got your back, that means they will stab you there.

Work for a director of a large company. I hear many things. The head of HR immediately comes in to “see” the guy I work for anytime someone has a legit complaint about things in the department. NOT to talk to the director to mediate the issue but how to fuck the person making the complaint

I’ve never heard an HR worker pretend to care about me, lol. Those jerks are at least too busy to pretend. Integrity of a sort, lol.

HR the department that equates your worth with a stapler. A resource that’s easily replaceable.

Well, actually they serve the company first.
If you report someone for unacceptable behaviour or sexual harassment, it’s the fastest way to get yourself on a “list”.
