WTI is now well below $2.00/barrel, at $1.28. This is beyond comprehension how it could go down over 90% in one day. Those layoff numbers might just get revised upwards. More borrowing to pay the ever increasing dividend on ever shrinking profits.

WTI is now at $8.03/barrel, down 56%. Well at least you will have 80 cents/gallon gas after you get laid off.

The new HR model. Sadly, this new normal is here to stay for a while.

Down to $14.09/barrel as I write this.

Let us guess. My guess is below 200.

So let’s say I get kicked off the island this fall (which is quite possible), how long should I expect it to take for me to get my severance and lump sum pension in hand. Can anyone from previous layoffs comment on the termination process and timing? — read more

I heard from folks in MCBU that they split up the org within factory recently, and doubled the supervisor positions while keep individual contributors flat. They are in trouble now with the low activities.

In order to qualify for 25% CIP, a large number of employees would retire in early April each year. Has that NOT happened in 2020 because folks are awaiting a severance bonus? stay safe & healthy out there CVX

Has anyone actually seen or received an expression of interest email? If so, details please.

I checked Bloomberg futures and as I write this, WTI is down $1.12 (5.21%) to $20.29/barrel. The part I do not understand is RBOB (gasoline) is down $3.15 (5.49%) to $54.22 USd/gallon. What does that mean? Does not make sense to me. Anyway, natural... — read more
