I work with a lot of HR staff and it amazes me at their lack of ability. Like don’t know how to do incredibly basic things in excel, my job is to help with using our products, not very basic data manipulation from exported data.
If you wanted a very obscure one off data extract I might write a SQL script for that, but some requests are met by existing export tools and hiding a column or two in excel.
That doesn’t mean HR is staffed with intelligent people who will back up the smaller paycheck.

Are you saying HR will side with the guy making cup cake comments?
That’s antithetical to the comment I replied to. It can’t be both.
No, I’m saying a dumb HR worker won’t rattle the cage in which they sit.
How can they protect the company they work for if they can’t stave off a cup cake law suit?
They literally did. Why are you disregarding her account and acting like this is some kind of hypothetical?
That’s not what her account said at all. You’re making up a narrative that doesn’t exist.
