I have no opinion on that because that's not what we're talking about. Usually companies that offer hourly rates rather than salaries don't have an HR department, or the HR department is so far removed from those employees as to make no difference to them whether they're there or not.
I'm not sure what you want me to say because it's pretty much irrelevant to the situation I'm describing.
The reason it's relevant is that most working people do not earn salaries, they earn hourly rates. I'm a welding engineer earning a salary, working with maintenance men and welders and operators who all earn hourly rates. Every company I've ever worked for has both salary and hourly and also an HR department.
The situation you are describing does not align with the vast majority of working people's experiences.
Hahaha, you're so full of shit your eyes are brown.
All companies with more than a handful of employees, have HR. It's a legal issue for them.
Salary vs hourly really has fuck all to do with this.
Wow, hey buddy, after looking through your comment history I see a long standing pattern of sarcasm, derision, and outright anger. If you're not already doing so, you should strongly consider therapy for anger management.
