Glazed over
- You know you are in HR, when crazy things no longer shock you. The mail room guy propositioned the custodian, who blackmailed a low level manager, who is having an affair with two secretaries...and you are one of only a few who know about it...and it doesn't make you blink an eyelash.

You Know You're in HR When...
- You're tasked with keeping the company employees happy, avoiding EEO/DOL complaints, finding new recruiting avenues and uses for social media, keeping benefits costs down for the company and the employees, and the million other things that HR does to help; yet, when a member of management doesn't like how long a process is taking, you are labeled a "roadblock" to their department. Most HR people would love to use less 'rules,' but most of the rules are laws and not open to negotiation.
