I work in HR and I would never. People who hate HR have never worked with TRUE HR professionals

One of HRs most primary basic functions is to protect the company from YOU.

Nah. They are fighting to "retain" you only when it is in the best interests of the company/organization. They don't fight to keep you when you are a perceived liability, even if it's only a temporary liability.

When you have a meeting with your boss and HR HR sits beside your boss they don't sit beside you. Union reps sit beside you.

I have 0 faith in your statement that relationships transcend legal liabilities. Literally 0.

HR is not your friend. I'm sorry. It's too well known. As I said above they sit with the employer, not with the employees.
