Not Tab related, venting some steam

Human Resources is shite:
I've got this industrial experience job for the summer at a rather large company. It's part of my degree that I need in order to graduate. I'm supposed to do 12 weeks, but HR at this company screwed me round, so I'm only getting about 9 weeks. 8 if you take into account all the friggin public holidays on at this time of the year. I'm not allowed to walk around by myself because I haven't done some bullshit safety course that covers nothing more than the company's own induction anyway, which I got 100% on straight up. So I need to be with a "responsible officer at all times" if I'm outside. I feel like I'm being treated like a friggin baby. They can't get me into this course cause its booked solid for all of Jan and Feb, but I leave towards the end of Feb anyway. Doesn't sound like they're trying too hard to get an extra course going either.
I've been pretty much all over the sight with my supervisor, who, along with his boss, reckon I'm right to go by myself, but HR have said NO to that one!
Bloody hell it shits me to tears

Robbie, a few home truths about companies/management...........

Those that can, do.
Those that can't become supervisors.
Those that can't supervise go into HR.

or another one....

Companies are like a tree full of monkeys, all at different levels on different branches.

Those in the higher branches look down, and all they can see is smiling monkeys.

Those in the bottom branches look up, and no matter how hard they look, all they can see is arseholes!

;D ;D ;D

(Get as much as you can out of the experience, and if worse comes to worst, you can always write a blues song about it!!)

I have am opinion on HR.....
1...most HR people are women
2 ..most HR women were poor when they were kids.
3..HR women who were poor when they were kids probably didnt have a Barbie Doll.
4..The HR women who were poor and didnt have Barbie dolls ....are now making up for it......by playing with real peoples lives.....


now to please the women...supplement women for men..and Barbie dolls for Toy trains....
