The current argument I'm involved in is about an online platform that people can use to give recognition to each other. HR is telling me to give my team negative performance reviews for not using it regularly.

They love to remind me that there's an app that everyone can install on their phone. The thing is, my team aren't allowed to use their phones at work. So, the goal is to get them to tell me in writing that using this online platform is mandatory and that my hourly staff has to do it off the clock or face repercussions which is illegal.

I wouldn't go that far. There are people on here that would call me a monster for just being middle management.

Yet you continue the struggle against the chaos of bureaucracy protecting your team. That's a hero st the very least.

Lots of people talk crap about middle management but the Job is to protect the working class from the madness of system as best you can. That makes a good leader. I had the pleasure of working with really great managers.
