How is the HR presence in your hub.
I never saw or talked to one HR person in 30 years.
That's because in your day, they were called Personnel.
HR in our area is kind of like everything else; managed from far far away by people who hardly know how to find us on the map
Our HR dept is exactly like this. Someone from 250 miles away handles our hiring process. The two I've seen so far aren't very good at judging the character of the individuals they hire.
the HR people here were good. I don't know what has happened, lately, though.
Why would you hire someone on Workerman's Comp from another job with torn ligaments in your knee to driver help, i.e. run your arse off in and out of the truck with your knee constantly bending, this peak?
