HR
This afternoon at my busy (new) job, I was snatched into an impromptu Human Resources meeting.
Apparently I am Human Resources for the company; which is interesting because this was the first I had heard of that.
I sat with a (White female) HR consultant for over an hour. The bulk of the time she instructed me on how sneakily break the law. I never knew there were so many reasons why a company shouldn't hire women.

whoa - prey tell what you mean by these 'reasons' why women shouldn't be hired!
This consultant went over all the typical reasons why employers don't hire women- they might not be able to focus while planning a wedding, they might get married and stop working, they might have kids and take leave.
She just kept explaining ways for me to find out stuff like marital status or plans without actually asking straight out. Then she would tell me that I am 'the employer' and not part of 'the employees.' Apparently my pay status doesn't need to reflect my loyalty.
