Any chance we’ll get a new CEO for Christmas???

Whats the story with Amber? Is she really an ace with Refining? Or another looney leg-opener? Sure seems like a very big talker.

I don't understand if this is a good change, or bad. My understanding: We will get 7 days for PTO in event of illness and the STD starts on Day 8. That is 26 weeks. Then no unpaid extended leave, correct? What would be the underlying cause of such... — read more

How do the 17,000 technology employees grow the company's bottom line?

I thought the usa webcast was pretty useless, except for the revelation that TA was a cr*p purchase. Love the chest thumping by the refinery ladies, empty words and rhetoric. Strange they travel so much to accomplish what exactly?

Wonder when changes will happen given most entities have had some form of restructuring already
