Thread regarding Shell Oil layoffs

Gretchen's "Be Ready October 4th"

WTH? They are leaving us in limbo telling us to arrange childcare, etc. and that basically we have to be ready to go into the office beginning October 4th at the drop of a hat. Yet our supposed "competitors" (Google, Apple) are at least upfront with their employees and announced a delay in the return to January 2022. That was just this week.

Why is Shell leaving us in limbo like this while our competitors are being upfront with their employees? Even Chevron have gone to their "Phase 3" which essentially means they know they won't return until 2022.

Gretchen is ready to let employees die to reopen the economy. It’s not like it will be her that gets sick.

You realize the people that run this company are stupid, right? This is only example 534, so not sure why the question.

Nothing wrong with being ready. Nothing set in stone, either, that Oct. 4th is "the" date to report back to the office. In my experience, Shell always jumps the g-n on this kind of sh-t - I'd expect clarification, if not complete retraction, within a week or so - it's the Shell way.

Yeah, just do it. Or go work for one of those companies you admire so much.
