Thursday layoffs suck

It sucks to be laid off on a Thursday and not get paid for the full week. Just another way to screw you over by not letting you use your sick or vacation time for that last day so you can get a full paycheck.

Kingwood WITCH needs to go!

There is no one more deserving of getting let go than a particular manager. This particular Logistics Manager is a manipulative, lying, conniving, and gossiping witch. ALL TIME LOW when we hired this one here, worse than Tracy Breedlove low.

The experienced and disenchanted are leaving

The Experienced and disenchanted are leaving. For those of you who assume that just because the oil industry is in a downturn the gifted, talented, and marketable are at the mercy of the company, they need to reevaluate. In 2005 WFT purchased PDS... — read more

6,000 Layoff status...

With all the recent announcement about furloughs, 401k, paycuts, does this mean the recent announcement about 6,000 layoffs will not happen? What is the status on this, hopefully they have decided not to lay off anyone else. Thank you

We did not cause this mess

My last post was very negative; however, my last comment about hope they end up in jail is because of their own making; moreover, this company was on 60 minutes two times in one year. And because our company has so much browed money we paid the price... — read more

How much did we REALLY lose?

No annual pay raise (inflation adjustment), no bonuses, 10% pay cut, no more 401k contribution matching... we lost way more than 10%. More like 20%. Meanwhile BJDD who made almost $15M in 2014 brags about giving himself a 10% cut.

Anyone read Bernie's memo on March 15?

I trust that most people have seen the email Bernie sent out on March 15, 2016. He really needs to have someone proof read his memo's, or lay off the scotch while writing. I'm still trying to make sense of "There's no point here and now arguing this... — read more
