Hey there,

Okay, fam, HR is officially having a moment. Like, a major moment. We're talking fraud scandals, micromanagement meltdowns, and people just straight-up quitting without a clue what's next. 😵‍💫 Grab your coffee (or something stronger), because this week is wild.

🌳100% Attendance? More Like 100% "Where'd My Money Go?" 💸

So, this HR manager in Shanghai? They basically created a whole fake employee universe and walked away with ₹20 crore. TWENTY CRORE! All because of some suspiciously perfect attendance records. 🙄Seriously, what were they thinking?

• Zero oversight? Rookie mistake.

• “Trust us, bro" HR systems? Not today.

• Payroll checks? Apparently, those are optional.

Moral of this twisted tale?

Get your audits in order, or you'll be paying ghosts. Literally. 👻

Marry or Be Terminated – Company's Alleged HR Directive Raises Eyebrows 🤨

Reports have surfaced of a company issuing a directive to single and divorced employees: find a spouse by September, or face termination. Yes, you read that correctly.

This raises several critical questions:

• Can a company legally dictate an employee's personal life?

• What are the ethical implications of such a policy?

• Is this a sign of a deeply problematic company culture, or a misconstrued communication?

🚪 The Great "Peace Out, I'm Done" Movement ✌️

People are quitting without a backup plan. No safety net, just vibes. 😳

Why the sudden exodus?

• Burnout is a monster, and people are running.

• Job market confidence? Or just wishful thinking?

• Mental health > paychecks? We get it.
