Oh, please, enlighten me. In what country do you think you're allowed to violate company policy?
Even if we ignore what @prole wrote, in civilized countries you're allowed to break company policy if it infringes your rights, regardless of what a contract says.
No country guarantees you the right to openly discuss politics in the workplace though.
Lol did you already forget what you said? Or did your original comment actually say, "Violating company policy at the work place has been an HR violation for some time..." Because yeah, no shit. Somehow I don't think that's what you were going for...
Did you purposefully completely change the topic, or was that some kind of "sly" attempt to pivot? Shit is real weird.
Maybe you were about to ask the actual logical follow-up question of, "In what country do you think you're allowed to discuss politics at work?" before doing a quick google search and realizing you'd make yourself look even stupider.
As if the entire conversation wasn't about whether or not something should be allowed to be a company's policy. Not whether or not employees should be able to break their work's HR policy. Do you not see the distinction here?
You must be very confused. I did not forget anything. I'm simply making the claim that your impression that this happens only in my "shitty" country is wrong and if you tell me what country you live in, I can give you multiple examples of it happening there too. You're probably misinformed or ignorant of the law if you think it doesn't.
"A company should not be able to make X part of their policy."
That's you. If only there was a word for this... Shmallacy?
The actual question would be,
Maybe I'm giving you too much credit, but I feel like you knew this and realize how stupid you sounded. The better thing to do would probably just have been to quietly exit the conversation.
By the way, check usernames, I just entered this thread.
Wow, you're one of those annoying idiots who think being aggressive makes them right. Good thing this platform has an "block" feature
Aggressive? Uh what?
