An attempt to salute the Human Resource team of an organization – a link between the top management and the employees. The team that cares so much for their employees and gets them talent at the right time, so that organization grows.
Something worth appreciating is that they handle many queries each day without a gift of ‘little thanks’ and yet they smile and enjoy work! And believe me, they form a special group of people, who are inclined to build relationships. Codes may falter, but relationships long last.
This poetry is written in the ‘First Person’ (grammar rules : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/We )
We deal with identities,
With smile do we sleep,
We talk like humans do,
An endless support, we adhere to.
Talk of us, as human-robots,
Relationships – are what we do,
Bug us at any time of day,
‘How may I help you?’, we get back to you.
We get you the army,
Help you with your problems,
Bring a smile to your family,
All this – with no ‘Thank you.’
Hi Anon(ymous),
The value that HR brings to an organization is not visible in terms of revenues. It is visible in the terms of culture of an organization, resource skill sets, merger and acquisitions and lot many aspects, that we employees do not observe.
I do not want to contradict your statement as I believe thoughts are built by experience and I find the HR in my organization quite responsive and employee-oriented.

Dear Punit,
My sympathies are with you and appreciate your love towards HR function. However, I tend to disagree that HR really brings value to the organization. Ask employees of any organization and most of them will reveal the pain that they carry due to this department. Moreover as a manager at a multinational firm, I can definitely tell you that the most inefficient department that I have seen my experiance was HR. These guys are most unproductive when org expects them to be the most.
Funny enough, someone discribes, “Playing with HR is like having safe sex. Eventually, they are the most unproductive ones in the org”.
One thing that I want to advise people who are serious about this proferssion, they should get into industry and uplift the status by creating substantial value at the base. Good luck.
btw… sorry to post the message with Anon identity.
i am totally impressed firstly with your talent to write and secondly your passion for the human resources profession.it is nice to see how well you have encapsulated all that we do in such simple words . it is not always a thank less job when we have ppl like you motivating us .
have a nice day…..
