"Resource Action." That's even worse than my previous corporate cog job where they called it a RIF, "Reduction in Force." Who sits around and justifies themselves by coming up with idiotic terms like this?

My company uses RIF, though I bet we're not alone (just in case, was it in Indy?)

Referring to humans as "resources" in general is creepy to me.

  Yes it is. I believe the usage comes from the days when calling them 'personnel' was deemed creepy!
