Last town hall made it abundantly clear that the ELT reads the layoff, so what all do you guys want to ask that you're not willing to put in the "anonymous" Q&A form? I'll start: We're reporting a lot of margin and cost savings, but it doesn't seem... — read more 

Anyone got any ideas?

How many of you plan on ditching as soon as VCIP hits the bank? Count me in! Should be all time high turnover from grumblings I hear. Get ready to leave or do more work from someone who left.

This is in response to below email. These types of cut backs are extreme and last time I checked OSHA says: Employers must maintain restrooms in a sanitary condition. Restrooms must provide hot and cold running water or lukewarm water, hand soap or... — read more 

Will this hurt our refineries, and raise prices at the pump.

Today’s poor 4th quarter 2024 earnings result is further proof that Businesses Malformation is not working! Someone please turn it off!

Has anybody heard anything about Elliott lately?

I saw a show this morning featuring the CEO of a company much larger than P66. For part of the show the CEO was shown dressed in jeans and a sweater just walking around and chatting with random employees about various subjects. It appeared to be... — read more 

Why is the company paying top dollar for new NGL assets while allowing the refineries to get more and more rundown?

As I sit here clicking away at the ethics compliance certification and GET cbt, I can't help but laugh at the irony of it all. Do as we say, not as we do right? Happy 2025! New year same sh-tshow😂

Are there any HR implications if I tell my boss I want to volunteer for a layoff? I’ve got a ton of time with the company and don’t want to be here anymore.

Happy New Year everyone! What exciting joys do you think 2025 will bring?

I had a post about the holidays deleted this morning. I really don’t know why. It wasn’t that bad, I’ve posted a lot worse that didn’t get deleted.

The attorney for Propel Fuels has asked the judge overseeing Propel Fuels versus Phillips 66 to double the original award against Phillips to $1.2 billion. They could have asked for 3 times the original award. Is there no end to the bad news?

I was laid off last spring. I didn’t think to find out if we would get a prorated bonus in 2025 for the 5 months of employment in 2024. At my previous employer (a major), we did. Thanks to everyone still working there.

Yeah, you read that right. The geniuses at WRR bought the “crude” from Valero from out of one of Valero’s old crude storage tanks. Turns out it is an emulsion with about 50% water. Rumor mill says that whatever contract WRR signed with Valero has... — read more

Since ELT does review this site, let’s start a productive post. Post an idea that you believe would improve the business that has been turned down by front line supervision or mid level management.

First post! Ol' GoGo hating on the layoff😂😂😂

I’m surprised there isn’t already a post about this yet. Any idea what happened? Neither the email, nor the town hall, provided any information.

Be very concerned!!! That middle finger from Tandra was just...wow.....
