KnowHR Blog: Want to Move Up In Social Class? Get Out of HR

    Another good one, Frank.

    And, in two other categories (income and wealth), I would bet that here in California, the garbage man makes more than the average HR professional.

    When I tell people that I'm in HR, they just give me a blank stare. I'm glad that I also teach at a private college - that seems to impress them when I tell them that I'm a college teacher. However, the garbage man (and there is one in my social circle) just smerks as he drives away in his new truck pulling his new boat.

    If you select Business and then HR (instead of Management and then HR), Human Resources gets a slightly higher score.

    Not sure why "HR Managers" are a lower class than "HR Professionals" though.

    I dunno...funny test, though. No one likes managers. ;-)

    I clicked "Friend of Frank" and scored a 94.

    That made my day. FOB has been one that's sustained me for a long while. I like that.
