That's a different department. Personnel existed to protect the employee. HR exists to protect the company.

Wouldn't want to mess with you of all people W-F:
It was the sign not the lorry driver that is senseless:
Bit like the " Well Driven? Phone xxxxxx" signs.

Pete, not everyone drives a mahussive Krautmobile/Volvo, people with poxy small cars also go too close to lorries.
An empty artic will have more braking action and slow down faster than a normal car.

Moving a vintage aircraft into a hangar at 0.00001 mph and finding you've still managed to knock half a wing off.
With apologies to WaveFlyer - the full sequence shows the aircraft fully intact, and I look forward to seeing the full job on the TV.

I believe that "personnel" morphed into HR as a result of a rebranding exercise some time in the late 20th century. Adoption of an Americanism no doubt.
