Why did you engage 2 people from HR? Did you not like one answer and hoping to get a different answer?

Probably loop them into a email and say you got conflicting information and would like a solid answer, just like you’d do for any other department.

Just tell them they’re giving you conflicting information and to discuss internally.

As I tell my boss, any time I receive contradictory or confusing direction, I count it as a blessing. It gives the latitude to create my own answers and priorities. And I am dead serious about that. Always operated that way.

Cool
