CHK and Cheniere Energy /
Cheniere Energy and CHK are making a deal. I hope this raise the CHK stock price
Next Round of Layoffs
Sitting around at CHK waiting to get fired is a lot like the poor Jews standing in line at Auschwitz. Right now you're gathered in the shower, cold and naked, just waiting for the gas to be turned on. It isn't much fun -- I went through the same... — read more

What to look for on a layoff day
Extra security in the black tahoes first thing in the morning. HR employees suited up in all black. Management acting weird.
I think.....
It is important not to get this time around confused with 2013. In 2013 other oil and gas companies would pick you up. This time they are also preparing for layoffs. My advice is to take this long weekend to update your resume and maybe even apply... — read more
History predicts the Future, lets take a look back . . . .
Take a look at 2013 . . . They want to have you cleared off the books by the end of the year - 12/31/2015. What is the last pay date in December? In 2013, (if I remember correctly . . . ) after the VP's were cut about Tuesday 9/10, then they went on... — read more
Doug to speak at Barclay's
So Doug is set to speak at Barclay's Tuesday. How does that work? What will he say if they are doing layoffs while he is speaking? If that venue holds I would guess no layoffs on Tuesday, but probably more likely he will cancel or send someone else.
Lots of posts today...
What do you thing DDD ("Dick Drainer" Doug) is doing in the glass house today???
Sandridge
Man...how do those guys sleep at night? I could probably pool a group of friends together and come up with enough money to buy that company out....
The big round pond thing...
Hey everyone, I was part of the 2013 layoff and was curious about some of the campus building projects that were in progress at the time. I can remember all of the projects other than some parking garages but what is that big round pond looking thing... — read more
Serious talk for once
I'm sorry but I know there is a lot of BS and joking on this site but if anyone has serious info to provide, I would love to hear it. I have a family and I'm the sole income, I need to know if layoffs are really going to happen.
September 15
I predict 9/15 will be the day of reckoning! My buddy in HR gave me the heads up. The market is dismal, good luck to all. I'm packing a box today.
Happy Friday! Let's go out in style!
Alright fellas, I'm pretty much waiting to be let go next week, it's all doom and gloom over here in acctg. Anyone got any good leads? Maybe carls jr is hiring.

Honestly, it's been real
I know there is a lot of fluff and BS on this site, but it's a nice place to vent and if you have a sense of humor, it can be uplifting. I hope nothing goes down next week but if it does, I wish nothing but the best for all of us! It's been a wild... — read more

Why does everyone think September 8th
Could be September 22nd.
It's official 9/8/15 is whack-a-mole day
This will just be the first round of carnage. It depends on what the stock price does. Remember, it's ALWAYS about the stock. Have a wonderful weekend!
Energy Games Cancelled... Hunger Games Guaranteed

Layoffs
Assuming layoffs happen, what group(s) do you think will be targeted?
2013 Layoff Board > 2015 Layoff Board
Used to be equal ratio of Slap Dicks to Brains now it's about 1 Brain for every 10 Slap Dicks on here. You guys have no order to your guessing. Must be the Slappers we hired in 2014 increasing the ratio.
AKM buying CHK shares!
AKM has raised enough capital to purchase CHK and plans to take it private. Big Daddy is coming home!
