Saw this title on Facebook, looked like a fake news one: Halliburton announces plan to retrench massive layoffs planned - did not want to go there, god knows who tracks it

Lots of rumors flying. What's the plan???!!!???

RES is hiring!

Would the 24th be the beginning of a new pay period, since it is a Monday? And what has been known to happen on the Mondays that fall at the beginning of a new pay period? Hmmmm.

We've been told now for months that we have plenty of orders and everything is rosey, but hey, where's the God damned work? We ain't got any .

Those PE "team leaders" are useless and they lost a lot of money.

25+ yr Sperry hand here. I see myself going soon. Justified, probably, but only because I'm the only one left after layoffs and the divestiture fiasco. Sperry has changed over the years, that 'can do'spirit has been slowly replaced with process... — read more
