I call up the HR department to get an address proof document, a lady picks up the fone, says some form is available on the web, download it and get it signed by some one in the HR department. The tone in which she spoke makes u feel as if u r begging for something and this lady did a great favor by just picking up the phone. I dont know what exactly the HR department out here does, 90% of the time the employees of this department are not in their seats, not reachable via mobile, if an email query is posted it goes directly into their trash, and when someone goes with a query they talk in such an arrogant and boastful tone. I feel most of the women in our HR department think that they are the 'Apsaras' and 'Menakas' of the industry and the first thought they have in their mind is to treat other employees like dirt, especially if the employees arent the managers or directors or someone whom they dont have a good rapport with. So much of discrimination. Upon this they are also boastful of bieng the Alumni of some of the top B schools of the country.
