I read the Annual Report this morning so none of you has to. It just repeats the same junk talking points that Go Go always spouts out. That 5 minutes I’ll never get back.

Rumor has it that Refining and Commercial ELT members are on their way out. Lots of meetings taking place in commercial following the Q1 hole we dug for ourselves. Looks like Mandell will be the one to pay for it, with a “retirement.”

This lonely Phillips 66 station! Not a single car at the pumps or customers inside. Located across the street from a competing station with 4 times the amount of traffic. https://imgur.com/a/8w7MaHx Moral of this story, the P66 brand su-ks.

M@rk, Kev, and Sean, You can go to all the conferences and spin the story how you want, but it is not working. Results speak louder than spin. Investors are not buying it.

So what’s the deal with losing two senior leaders in a week? Are we finally seeing BM clean up shop before “retiring” as has been rumored for several years now? MH is probably tired of waiting to takeover.

Does anyone know how much Houston P66 traders get paid for total comp of base and trader bonus?
