    I do love it, and I’m dying to know what it’s from!

    My husband and I have been talking about this a lot lately; he really struggled with feeling betrayed and confused by the actions of HR at his last job, because that person had worked hard to establish a good rapport with him and convince him that they were friends. It worked, even though I told him to not trust and not believe, and when it turned out they were just data mining for better manipulation, he was very hurt by it, because he’s a kind and honest guy who expected the same in return.

    I told him it’s pretty likely that HR training involves learning to emotionally manipulate people but doesn’t call it that, in the same way that sales training teaches you “tools for closing” that are just manipulation tactics by another name. I would love to be able to show him some HR training materials. Is there more of this available?
