HR Blues.. when the work week starts with a resignation

In office Monday, the first thing I notice a staff wearing casual blue tank top...I ask her " Charu (name changed)... Why are you in casual??" She replies.. "Mam, coz m resigning today"..

Wow ! that's seems to be the most amazing welcome for an HR Executive!!! Does not it?
I again request her, resigning today does not permit you to wear casuals..., she says at least the trouser is formal??

And many like Charu have problems that we treat them like Kids...

Handling a BPO HR is NOT FUN. We are forced to take in young staff with little immature fantasies, we have to make them feel good and happy about their job, listen to their requests and then, if they leave the organization on pretexts of being treated like children. We have to give explanations for attrition! On top of it we have absolutely no support from any external medium to replace or re - hire!!

Live swings, this is case of a Monday.. I remember past Saturday before leaving for home, Gunjan (name changed) (an employee) came up to me casually and said that she will not come from Monday onwards!!!". See how cool and comfortable they are with their HR!

Something has to be done about it, something seriously and something now.

Bye for now............

One day's leave does wonders!

I had to call off from work for one day- Saturday. I was tired to attritions.to speaking and speaking and speaking.. grievances.. uff being an HR ! Good news as I am back on Monday. Long time school friend K, passed her resume to me looking for relocation to Delhi. WOW! Warm welcome K!! A small chat with V, Will see if his profile works as well. Good School leaders is all that I can say. Oh! the good old school days Miss them. Then, we are advertising in news paper for good team members with a walk in interview schedule as well. XX attrition R... selected at xx process!!!! Cool this was a long time position at AA. And R was definitely looking for change, was serving her notice term already.

the withdrawal

For a mail-maniac like me, who preferred to check work mails every 2 minutes and personal mails every 2 hours - following trends in various topics and newsletters and job alerts.. it suddenly surprised me that in midst of this summer, being purely devoted towards watermelons and mangoes and of course my baby boy, its been over a week I haven't checked my mails ! Exactly one year since I quit my formal office work. For 10 years, I led a mail-maniac life, it took one whole year as hangover with way too many withdrawal symptoms. But I would like you all to believe that life has much more, much much more than the busyness of office, the fragrance of money and all things money can buy. And every bit of it is worth it ! Live it, love it !! Make most of it while you can !!! :)
