I forwarded the answers to the social media question to the IT director at my agency. They just blacked us out of social media sites last week. I asked if it was a bandwidth or a productivity issue. She said, “Yes.”

The comment about it taking longer to use IPhones than computers is true for me.

If anything– this proves, beyond a shadow of doubt, HR is alive and well. Since I’m not an HR professional, I don’t think I’m qualified to have an opinion.

But I was just informed by Ahhh-nold Schwartzenbottom that they’re taking out 10% more in taxes from our pay untill the end of the year. Aren’t Republicans for less taxes? Goes to show that everyone has thier high brow theories and speculation– but what really comes out in the wash is what you deal with– including HR.

I read that the first time as “Raging Diabetes in HR.” Couldn’t figure out what the tagline meant, then I looked again. LOL
