Thread regarding Halliburton Co. layoffs

It has come to this.

I couldn't believe my eyes. What an incredulous sight. You simply cannot comphrend the feelings that swept over me today as i gazed across the pond from my resplendent surroundings in my luxurious work surroundings here at technology central north belt. I looked up, only briefly, from my company critical work assignment to witness Jesus, yes Jesus himself, being led off of the premesis under escort of security guards. Has it come to this? Is this our defining moment? This can only reflect negatively on what has previously been an impeccable public standing. Where do we go from here? Which is the way that's clear? I'm still searching, hell yeah, for an answer. Which may only be found in "better you than me".

Ohhhh Haiiiiiii - isn’t it a lovely day here? A little warm though, not too much sun. Hey, I wrote a song.!!

Looking out from my view the sun on the water inspired my to scribble down these words. What do you think?

Sunshine on the duck pond makes me happy, sunshine in my eyes can make me cry.

Sunshine on the water looks so lovely, sunshine almost always makes me high.

If I had a day that I could give you, I'd give to you the day just like today.

If I had a song that I could sing for you, I'd sing a song to make you feel this way.

If I had a tale that I could tell you, I'd tell a tale sure to make you smile.

If I had a wish that I could wish for you, I'd make a wish for sunshine for all the while.

I think ol’ JC would’a liked that song. Ya’know some of you claim to know JC but i never seen

anybody share their table with the dude in the chow cafeteria. Bunch o bunking’ hypocrites the all of ya.

if you had gotten to know the dude, perhaps you would have seen what a down to earth and funny guy he was.

Why one of his favorite things to do was if there was a group of us in the restroom, he would come in and smile wryly at us and find an open stall and go in and close the door. Of course he would clear the room so to speak if you know what I mean. Man! Whew!

And as we all headed for the door to leave, he would be coming in through the door as we were trying to leave. Really freaky, we’d look back at the stall, and there would be nobody there.!! For real. He had a good laugh at that. Oh well, to the good times. Times do change, I don’t know how much longer my neighbor here is gonna be around, keeps talking about potential offers of some type or another. But hey, things do change right? And maybe for the better.

Tell ya'what. I will be sure to look for him on my commute this morning. And if I do see him, I will offer him a shoe. In the meantime, you should probably seek some professional help of some sort.

Oh Haiiiiii and helllloooooo. Good morning. Feeling adventurous I drove a different route to my work today. One that would take me through smaller burroughs of clustered and crowded homes and small businesses. You know of what I speak. Small mom and pop convenience stores called Wag-A-Bag, ShopNSnack, ShopNGo, small bar-be-que joints and family restaurants where the aromas of last nights special still linger in the air and the excesses of consumption may be found on the parking lot pavement. But what i noticed was the out front billboards that many of these establishments maintain. Advertising specials, menu items or making a quick snippet of a comment regarding local issues. And then i noticed a recurring theme. Several of these billboards carried comments such as “Jesus is King”, “We should live as is Jesus was coming this afternoon”, “It is Jesus that you seek”. Which made me wonder if maybe just maybe, he is still out there somewhere, somehow. Perhaps searching for the answers that will bring meaning to all this chaos. Or perhaps, just looking for that sandal lost at the east gate, all this while wearing only one shoe. And all the while bringing a growing awareness to our plight. Which gives me cause to wonder. Did those feet, in recent times, climb the stairs here in our building? Or did he use that slow as crap elevator. Did his countenance devine shine forth upon the large duck pond and bridge? Oh, did he get a coffee at the coffee bar? Or sit upon the low flush toilet closest to the wall? having to end up flushing an additional 3 or 4 times for proper waste elimination. Was dignity and respect ever builded here, Among these dark Satanic Mills? I cannot help but be distracted by these thoughts, but yet they bring hope., I will not cease from my Mental Fight nor will I miss this morning’s coffee get together with friends. We must all stand as one - as do those who possess the Bow’s of burning gold and Arrows of desire, riding to and fro in their Chariot’s of fire!

No one in management ever really gets "canned", the whole thing is for show, and the person in question is merely transferred to another location, where his past is unknown.

This is just one of the many perks that they enjoy, that the peasants are NOT supposed to know about.
