Protip for all the younger workers out there:

HR is not there to protect you or help you. They are there to protect the company. Sometimes protecting the company happens to mean helping you, and sometimes the HR people are good people who look for solutions that makes everyone happy. But don't count on it.

That's not wrong, but it seems like in these recent cases, HR has done a terrible job protecting Uber from liability and lawsuits.

It has, however, done a great job of protecting its managers (At the expense of the company.)

That's what happens when you let the clowns run the asylum.

Hey, those clowns built that asylum!
