Yes, too often HR spends their time enforcing broken systems rather than questioning the systems' integrity and efficacy. This kind of behavior just shoots HR's reputation in the foot. Wow, a request for spying! Did you ask for a magnifying glass, a Sherlock Holmes hat and a pipe to go with that? Did she offer to pay you for performance? More dirt = more pay? Perhaps your being laid off from this organization was a blessing in disguise. Thanks for stopping by and sharing your story. Regards, Michelle Hi Robyn,

When I've managed other employees, I've had the same experience and have often referred to HR as "Human Roadblocks." As for asking me to check my character at the door, I once worked for a woman who put her own character in a bus terminal locker in a (doomed) attempt to hold onto her own job. On the way home from an employee conference a month or so before I was laid off, she asked me to spy on a co-worker who also (as she knew) happened to be a friend of mine. I was so shocked I didn't know what to say. I guess she thought that everyone was like her. Great post.
