I'm tired of playing the game

I believe it's not particularly different in other big companies in the industry, but I'm really tired of constantly playing the game. I don't mean climbing the corporate ladder, I'm just talking about making sure that the company doesn't squeeze... — read more

Can we talk???

Beyond words. A CVX talk show? What in the actual _ _ _ _? I can only hope that at some point she’ll offer the Jerry Springer edition of this drivel, because that would at least be entertaining.

I really don't know what kind of employee is "good enough" for Chevron, since even stellar employees are constantly criticized here. No matter how productive you are, you will be required to be even more productive. And then the management is... — read more

Stop shaming people for doing their work

Workers aren't "quiet quitting." They're refusing to be exploited for their labor. And they're flexing their muscles for the first time in decades. This is exactly what's been happening and it has been a joy to watch for this old-timer right here... — read more
