Jamie, from the acclaimed HR Besties podcast, joins us for a riotous chat that promises both hilarity and insight into the world of human resources. Together with her co-hosts, Leigh and Elaine Henderson, and legal whiz Ashley Hurd, Jamie hosts a must listen to podcast HR Besties. As we welcome Jamie, she gives us the backstory on her popular meme persona, the "Chief Meme Officer," and how the pandemic inspired her to create Humorous Resources. With a flair for transforming workplace drama into comedic gold, Jamie walks us through her journey of meme-making and the unexpected success that followed.

In an episode that blends personal anecdotes with professional wisdom, Jamie also sheds light on her experience as a one-person HR department during COVID-19. From tackling ever-changing CDC guidelines to handling the pressure of managing 200 healthcare employees, she shares the rollercoaster of emotions that led to the creation of Millennial Misery, a nostalgic refuge for her fellow elder millennials. Listen in for Jamie's unfiltered perspective on the trials of working in HR, the therapeutic power of humor, and what's next for the HR Besties as they gear up for their fourth season. Whether you're an HR veteran or just in need of a good laugh, this episode offers something for everyone.
