Day one: Say you cant make your first 1-on-1 because your dog died. Call in sick to your second 1-on-1 Don't answer your phone or return their phone call. After they throw out a couple of threats, send them a reply, stating that you will meet them. Send them an email, prior to your meeting, stating that you want to be treated in a professional manner. Show upto the meeting ( even though now, the HR will not want to show up ) Wait for HR to show up, during the scheduled meeting time. Send them an email to reschedule the meeting. Goto step 4

be like the indians, just dont respond at all! Why over think this? Just ignore all emails from people you dont know personally and say I didn't get your email, can you resend please. Then, turn on your out of office assistant and to say due to IIDC holiday I will OOO till next week. Cheers! It works for 5,000 indians, why wouldn't it work for you?

EPIC

Yeah, this sounds real mature, ... NOT.

For what it's worth, HR can do nothing to you if you don't show up to work for 3 days. Meaning, if you just stop showing up to work, 3 days after your manager notifies Hr that you're missing, only then can they contact you. They won't even release your emergency contact info to your manager till after 3 days.

@mtb - I think this is an interesting tatic. i wonder how long you could sustaine this and to what end? If you could somehow pull it off for say, six or seven months, I could see this being beneficial from many angles. Eventually, your manager will jump in and hunt you down though.

I just took medical leave for 3 days and then emergency leave for another 2 days. They can't do sh-- about it. I plan to continue with the same pattern next week.

Head to your doctor and tell him/her you are having panic attacks. Take Medical Leave of Absence.

and why?

Need a counter and conditional to exit after N iterations.
