Thoughts on “Woman who launched a 'racist tirade' against two black employees at Michaels is identified as an HR WORKER”

Once again, we see a fine display of what infests the hiring profession in America these days. This video went viral a few weeks ago, but here it is for those who missed it:

I recently came across an “update” on this story which revealed the identity of this sociopath...

Ah, good ole' LinkedIn, offering proof that to be successful in America today all you need is a hot supermodel-style picture on your profile, along with a "network" of 500+ strangers you call "friends."

Further details from the article:

She said she “worked directly with Executive leaders and directors” to “facilitate the effective coordination and delivery of HR services including talent acquisition, performance management, compensation, employee and labor relations employee engagement, and workforce planning.” She said she “addressed poor performance issues and policy violations through progressive discipline and performance management process. Established a formal recruiting and onboarding program, counsel management.” 

She wrote on LinkedIn that she was “experienced in achieving organizational transformation through strategic HR Program and System Implementations.”

She called herself a “responsive and trustworthy business partner who helps leaders redesign their organizational structures to help improve employee engagement, retention, and productivity.” She said she was an “articulate and effective presenter” who demonstrates “leadership, keen analytical and assessment skills. Excels at adapting a responsive leadership style to suit unique cultural environments.”

So…she does...WHAT, exactly, for $90K/year?

From my 1994 Sniglet-a-Day calendar:

Occuflation: Taking menial jobs on your resume and fancying them up, i.e. 'sharpening pencils' becomes 'managing office equipment'

Ah, well, at least she meets the minimum qualifications to work in 21st century America, those qualifications being that she's (1) 26 years old, and (2) attractive. I can’t help but wonder whether Sinai passed over better qualified “old farts” when filling this role, opting to hire the twentysomething twat just because “everyone else is doing it.”

Whatever. I’m confident she’ll find another cushy corporate HR gig paying $90K/year – and, sadly, I’m NOT being sarcastic.

Oh, and to any HR twats who take offense here at being judged based on the actions of one lone lunatic, I ask: How does it feel? You routinely program your ATSs to dismiss our job applications based on whether we're "too old," whether we’re unemployed, whether we have a slight gap on our resumes, whether our last names sound “too ethnic,” whether our street address is in the wrong side of town, and on and on. And, let’s not forget, you’re using an ATS because you’re too fucking stupid to know how to read a resume. So, if you are offended by this story, GOOD.
