Thread regarding ConocoPhillips layoffs

Execs: the company is only literally clearing ~$1B/month in profit. Time for a pay cut?

Since ConocoPhillips is struggling quite a bit these days, I figure the executives should take some pay cuts this year to help the company out. They’re only pulling in roughly a billion bucks in net profit each month, after all. Practically minimum wage for that crowd. Why not let the company hang on to a bit more of that money, eh? The executives can take one for the team and bump profits even higher by trimming their own salaries instead of just cutting jobs in the States and up here in Canada. It’d also let them show the shareholders just how committed they are. It's their time to shine and show their S|P|I|R|I|T

Why are you worried about what others make?

Fu-k that. Some of us are paid livable wages. This makes us outliers in America. I want every godda-n cent.

The “P” stands for PROFITS, right?

To be honest. The employees could use a pay cut as well. We’re paid far too much for what we actually do. If that wasn’t the case nobody would really care about layoffs.
