The "Hello, Human Resources" meme originates from an editorial cartoon titled "Know The Work Rules" by artist Andy Warner, published around 2012-2013. The meme features two panels: the top shows an attractive man saying something (often left blank for customization) and a woman reacting positively with "Awww, you're sweet." The bottom panel shows a less attractive man saying the same thing, provoking the woman to call "Hello, Human Resources?!" It satirizes workplace double standards and hypocrisy, highlighting how identical actions can be perceived vastly differently based on the attractiveness or social standing of the individual. It is used to mock situations where bias dictates responses to behavior, often related to appearance or perceived social acceptability.
