There is a well known organization that represents a bevy of HR practitioners. The association is The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), and it describes itself accordingly:
The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) is the world
Human Resources is for Suckers.

No doubt! I was thinking along very similar lines as I flipped through the last HR Magazine which had such out-dated news I couldn’t believe it. I way like, um I read 85% of this crap on the interwebs like weeks ago and the rest is filler. Hello? Ding, dong….SHRM – are you even awake? I’m sending them this link dammit.
Are you sending the link via carrier pigeon? If you’re lucky, they might be able to get an incoming fax.
Ugh, I hate SHRM. Isn’t every other article about how to relate to Millennials yet SHRM does nothing to connect to Millennials. The magazine is dryer than the Bible.
Amen. I haven’t opened the magazine in months, Rachel. If I want to fall asleep, I’ll take Ambien.
I emailed the link to the Chair of the BOD. It will probably go to her spam box though – many people tell me my emails go there no matter what they do. Bleh.
With a name like Wench, it has to be spam!
I just couldn’t resist. Here’s what I wrote inspired by your post.
