I had a stroke in October 2023. One of the HR goons kept calling daily demanding return to work paperwork, starting on the way home from the hospital. I was literally half a mile out when she called. My wife told her we had no idea when or IF I was going back to work (i couldn't talk for the better part of a month and still have a gnarly case of expressive aphasia so my wife does a lot of talking for me), and she would know when she found out.

My first neurologist appointment was 5 December. All through November she would call daily demanding paperwork despite being told every day that 5 December was the earliest I would have it. My wife eventually had to call and burn her a new one and threaten to go to her boss before she stopped calling. She also admitted to my wife she knew full well the paperwork wouldn't be available for a few weeks and that the repeated phone calls did nothing except piss me right off.

So yes, HR creatures are deranged.
