HumouR Us... It has been reported, that those working in Human Resources are amongst the unhappiest workers in the United Kingdom... There are occasions when the nature of our work perhaps puts us in a more sombre mood than most, but that's not always the case and there can be a lighter side to our work too - even some humour on occasions and we will be using this space to share some of the funnier aspects of our work. Some of the stories will be true; others will be entirely fiction - but in all cases, names will be with-held to protect the guilty!!!!

How not to give Feedback... Part Three
This week, our final few examples of how NOT to give feedback to staff during their annual review...
He’s got a full six-pack, but lacks the plastic thingy to hold it all together
She is a gross ignoramus -- 144 times worse than an ordinary ignoramus
He has a photographic memory but with the lens cover glued on
He’s as bright as Alaska in December
If brains were taxed, he'd get a rebate
Some drink from the fountain of knowledge; but he only gargles.
If you have any other examples ~ real or fictional of how now to give feedback, send us them using the contact form on this page...
