Opportunistic HR Complaints

When someone files one or more HR complaint on trumped-up causes for reasons related to their career advancement: you are in the way of their advancement and so subjecting you to an HR investigation will create a hostile environment for you. HR will run various tests and behavioral traps to figure out if the allegations are true or not and in the process you will experience it as a nightmare. You will either choose to remain and act like the innocent person you are, and eventually the company will either tolerate or remove them at its discretion. Or you can contact an employment lawyer, in which case you may not find out the result of that for many years -- long after you have left. These folks filing HR complaints against you may never stop if HR is concerned about a retaliation lawsuit from them.

Micah: Did you hear that Miguel has been filing opportunistic HR complaints against Tanya? 8 of them -- not a single one substantiated.

Oreo: He's just trying to knock her out of the competition for that promotion he wants -- and yes, goddamn it, my name is Oreo. It's not my fault.
