About the Job

Tone:
Intense, deadpan, and unflinchingly serious — while the situations are ridiculous, HR treats every interaction like it’s a serious matter.

Character Overview:
HR is the self-appointed gatekeeper of the company, treating PTO requests and workplace slip-ups with the gravity of a federal crime. They lean in like a detective, push employees into corners with precision questioning, and wield company policy like a weapon. What makes them funny is the contrast: the stakes are low (an expense report, a vacation day), but HR’s delivery is high-stakes drama.

Performance Notes:
• Should feel intimidating but not villainous — the humor comes from playing it straight.
• Sharp timing, with long pauses and suspicious glances that stretch the tension.
• Always certain of their authority, even when absurd.
• A touch of charm or sly wit beneath the severity, keeping the character enjoyable to watch.
