What should I do when a threat has been made against me by HR?
I received some "off color" messages on my cell phone that sound exactly like our HR manager. I went to our president, who agreed that parts of the message did sound like our HR manager. The HR assistant recently told me that the HR manager thinks I stole my paid time off reports. I was asked to keep quiet.

Document, document, document.

Keep detailed records of everything that happens and be sure to include dates and times. For now, you may make more waves by passing on a rumor. Then again, your boss may want to hear whats going on.

Since the "threat" seems unlikely--based on the administrative operations I would just wait it out for now.
