Frusty and the HR Manager : Pinky


Frusty and the HR Manager : Pinky

Click on the picture to enlarge.

Today I am introducing a new character, Frusty's HR Manager Pinky. She is Pinky because all she can do is hand over Pink Slips.

Moral of the Story: Somehow recession, cost cutting measures, retrenchment etc. never seems to affect the HR department. They always seem to have enough budgets for mindless entertainment programs where as the organization might be cutting costs by switching off Air Conditioners and lights at 6 o clock and make the whole office sweat in the sweltering heat. The activities of the HR department always seem to frustrate everyone.

The story in words for those who cannot see the picture:
Pinky( the HR Manager) to HR team : Last month we gave pink slips to 100 people from production , sales, R&D and saved $ 0.5 million.
Pinky( the HR Manager) to HR team : I have also got an approval for $5 million for the HR team. The whole HR team will fly to Swiss Alps for a week to Brain storm on how to improve Employee morale.

  1. You seem to be cynical about the HR department. I don't think HR is all that bad.

  2. You seem to be from the HR department. Get me ten people (who are not a part of the HR or Admin department) who do not agree with me. I will acknoweldge your views publicly on my blog.
