Do not train your replacement! Chevron is not entitled to the knowledge in your brain. If they want us to go management can train them....

One of my n-laws from Britain made a visit in Jan 2005 at what was the BP Refinery at Texas City (now Marathon). BP had bought the refinery from Amoco and laid off/retired all the old -timers. The engineers on the FCCs, HTRs, HCKR etc. all were young and clueless American college grads. The group managers were 30ish Brits with more knowledge but a lot of gaps. The refinery manager was British. Basically, they were flying blind. There had been little done to transfer the knowledge base and a create a reliable set of job files for the new folks. I.e. insufficient training.
The explosion on March 2005 ki-led 15 workers and injured 180.
The majority of the IT MSP teams we have worked with over the past 5 years are not a level we can train them. Most are junior experienced level and the ones with experience in their field are not able to take it the next level to expand their knowledge. If I am asked, I will help to the level they can ask and be trained but I am not a tech writer and they should have the initiative to search the Internet and find the answers for themselves. When I was growing my skills no one created "workbooks" with step by step instructions for me. I learned through trial and error and they will be expected to succeed through hard work, the same way I learned my job over the years. I came to Chevron as an experienced hire and Chevron did not take the time to teach me.
Yeah…..the North Korea thing was not smart, unless your a tyran-iCal loving soshall-ist
@ar, Oh my what an absolutely perfect analogy! You're a resident of North Korea now and an expert on their culture, lm(f-ing)ao!
'From all of us who may be remaining employed. Which is the majority'
so are the people in north korea
but they weren't d-mb enough and corrupt enough to rack up
a whopping 37 trillion in debt
if you were any more 'successful', the majority would be living inside a cardboard box
I'm thinking that Chevron is much better off without the likes of the OP training anyone.
Anyone at all. But it's precious that you think you are talented and special. So thanks. From all of us who may be remaining employed. Which is the majority.
Copy paste values
Shut up and make your videos so the McDonalds fry guy can take over
or you could give them partial truths or partial lies
or leave things out
or maninpulate them socially
there are many subtle ways of sabotaging them
the upper management aren't terribly bright
all is fair when the 'executives' on the top are raking in money
while not having any useful skills and destabilizing your family
Make the person that is trying to take over your job think for themselves. Don't tell but make them ask
I plan on utilizing co-pilot as much as I can to create all my transition documentation. There are articles out there that show you step by step. Do the needful.
Don’t put your severance and benefits at risk. But you’re also not exactly going for “exceeds expectations” either.
