HR & EYE SERVICE 2

 There are HR Managers who do not partake in the staff selection process but issue employment letters on instructions.

I detested all forms of Nepotism and short-circuiting of the selection process and in three cases which I bowed to senior managers instructions ended in failure.

Firstly, a Personnel/Admin Manager fought with a Cleaner within three months of his assuming office.

Secondly, a Material Stores Manager, I had to terminate his appointment on the third month.

Thirdly, a TPM Officer stayed a month and left.


On one occasion, I had to cancel an interview in my absence because someone who thought he was powerful substituted the candidates I called for interview with other candidates.


Finally, I only accepted candidates recommended for interviews not employment. Infact, on one occasion, I threw out the names brought for employment by the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the company.

I am sure to a majority of HR Managers reading this content, disqualifying the candidates of the Board Chairman is anything but full-hardy.

HR MISTAKES BY YOURS TRULY 6

 My refusal to accept two direct instructions from two gentlemen who were instrumental to my employment in two companies where I enjoyed working, cost yours truly those jobs because I considered those instructions as unreasonable. Firstly, I was asked to provide information that would lead to the termination of the employment of five high performing managers. My response was to send my boss a local ICBM to the effect that "a man who circumcises woman do not talk". If the man talks, he will die of hunger. Secondly, I was asked to tell half truths by my boss, which I considered to be telling lies and I refused. My boss explained further to yours truly, that what he was saying was for yours truly to play politics because politics is about half truths. He stated further that should yours truly continue to insist on the truth only, he would join others in fighting yours truly. My response to him was "you're welcome. Within five weeks of this discussion, your truly was tra...
