You don't ask.

2018-10-03 12:20:46 UTC  

I have to work with the diversity director occasionally to set up some of her meetings

2018-10-03 12:21:21 UTC  

She asked me a few times to participate in her meetings but i flat out do not attend

2018-10-03 12:21:56 UTC  

Im like fuck that if i attended that shit they’d fire my ass with all the truth 💣 id drop on them

2018-10-03 12:22:53 UTC  

If they do, just claim to be the opposite gender and sue the shit out of them

2018-10-03 12:23:12 UTC  

@Rabbi Shekels I've worked in many corporate environments.

2018-10-03 12:23:42 UTC  

It's always been that way that the regular engineers and full timers would kind of keep away from HR.

2018-10-03 12:23:52 UTC  

@Dan V im good though im half spik and craka so no one says shit to me

2018-10-03 12:23:53 UTC  

Usually, they were kept separately to begin with.

2018-10-03 12:24:03 UTC  

But, it has really taken on a new level recently.

2018-10-03 12:24:27 UTC  

It had always been kind of a running gag for us to say something kind of offensive and then snicker: "Good thing HR isn't here."

2018-10-03 12:24:30 UTC  

This is the first company/law firm ive ever worked at that had a (((diversity))) director shes black also

2018-10-03 12:24:44 UTC  

Or play the game: How many offensive, illegal questions can we ask in one interview?

2018-10-03 12:24:46 UTC  

Omg HR is the worst

2018-10-03 12:25:46 UTC  

Yes.

2018-10-03 12:26:04 UTC  

They'd be the joke around the office. But, at least they were not threatening, or used to be.

2018-10-03 12:26:38 UTC  

They always had the office across the street. You didn't usually have to worry about them, as long as you didn't actually do something illegal or harmful.

2018-10-03 12:26:50 UTC  

Now they are kind of in your face all the time.

2018-10-03 12:27:10 UTC  

You could also see other indicators rise, like the number of mandatory HR trainings.

2018-10-03 12:27:42 UTC  

There was maybe one per year, then we eventually had 4 or so, for each quarter I think.

2018-10-03 12:27:49 UTC  

I don't quite remember.

2018-10-03 12:28:12 UTC  

they had this up on November 2017

2018-10-03 12:28:17 UTC  

They would track the completion of every one, because you had to log onto a portal to view those trainings.

2018-10-03 12:28:36 UTC  

So they split the womens bathroom in half for that

2018-10-03 12:28:48 UTC  

Then a few weeks later they took it down lel

2018-10-03 12:28:54 UTC  

That's so idiotic. One of my co-workers was fired because he accidentally walked into the women's rest room once.

2018-10-03 12:29:06 UTC  

Nothing happened, he just walked right out after he realized his mistake.

2018-10-03 12:29:10 UTC  

Thats fucked up lmao

2018-10-03 12:29:15 UTC  

There was one woman in there who then reported him to HR.

2018-10-03 12:29:24 UTC  

And, he even had a good reason for his mistake:

2018-10-03 12:29:49 UTC  

On all floors, the women's rest room was usually to the left. On the floor it was to the right.

2018-10-03 12:29:53 UTC  

As far as i know we dont have any trans people working in the nyc office we do have gay people working here

2018-10-03 12:30:06 UTC  

So, he was chatting with someone on the cell phone and was just on autopilot.

2018-10-03 12:30:13 UTC  

At least one gay guy lawyer works here and hes chill

2018-10-03 12:30:19 UTC  

He was an engineer, too, and we paid good money to hire him.

2018-10-03 12:30:37 UTC  

So they canned him for that shit ? @Undead Mockingbird

2018-10-03 12:30:39 UTC  

And now it's all bullshit apparently anyway, because everyone can just use whatever restroom they please!

2018-10-03 12:30:45 UTC  

YES, they fired him.

2018-10-03 12:30:55 UTC  

This one woman threw a fit and claimed some past trauma.

2018-10-03 12:31:14 UTC  

She was some fat retard who nobody would have touched anyway.

2018-10-03 12:31:24 UTC  

Damn thts fucked up
