Jaded HR: Your Relief From the Common Human Resources Podcasts Warren Workman & Feathers

Ever had one of those days when the HR role feels more like a rollercoaster ride than a job? Strap in as we take you on a wild ride through the intense world of Human Resources. We kick off with the tricky terrain of salaries, bonuses and the surprisingly prevalent workplace jealousy. Drawing from our own experiences (believe us, we have plenty to share), we chat about coping strategies, the emotional toll, and the unfortunate truth that HR isn’t always the most lucrative field - no matter how many secret salary documents we stumble upon!

But we’re just getting started. Hang on as we zoom into the generational gap, fired up by a viral TikTok video and some eye-opening stats about our friends from Gen Z. When 74% of managers report struggling to manage them, we have to ask, what gives? Tune in as we examine the pandemic’s effect on their social cues, ponder the parenting factors, and even share a chuckle about generational quirks. Wrapping up our wild ride, we share our own HR "WTF" moments (hand us the bourbon!), and lighten the mood with our annual Christmas song because let's face it, the HR life may be tough, but it sure isn't dull. Buckle up, this is one HR journey you won't want to miss.
