what if there is some truth to these rumors? you guys need to conduct an investigation by a 3rd party in the same manner as you do it with e.g. ISO to stay in compliance before denying and threatening everyone. This by itself is suspicious. You are probably in the same team. I believe that whistleblowing is not banned there yet.

I agree, your interpretation is wrong and not appropriate in the circumstances.

Please stay off of this board least we report you to the mediator of the board. You will be tracked down and fired!

The latest rumor that I saw in the preceding post here is, if I understand it correctly, that the Brits and Aussies working for Schlumberger and 'My' Swaca of Houston in particular, perhaps highly decorated managers and directors, use their British Commonwealth's Indian vassals for profit. The latter are extremely artful in bribing and would keep their mouth shut which keeps them and their masters in their positions forever independent of the crude oil market fluctuations. The company shareholders are not concerned about as they still make profit, the management makes it as well, and the Brits and Aussies and the ones whom they are connected to also prosper at the expense of the poor Americans. They praise these companies for a paradise that they created for those folks in Houston, TX USA. I would praise too if I were to work in such conditions! But I don't because I work for a company where there are no bribes and our managers are in their positions not because they give and take bribes and are connected all over but because they deserve it. I can be wrong but this was my interpretation

They can't be moved because it would cause too much friction? I dunno, just a thought.

Seriously? Impossible to move a machine? This is why Smith hands need to be the first to go before True Blue SLB people!

Upon letting the CEO go packing, as oil prices recover, the board thanks him for the job well done managing the downturn (transforming the company by getting rid of all experienced people)
