Dark side, only way to survival
They can only offshore things that are in perfect shape , running smoothly, with cost targets achieved.
We learned that the hard way at Kearl and Cold Lake. We drove massive cost savings, brought the assets to top-tier performance, even down to second-lowest operating cost. Back then, they needed us. We were told, If we can hit these targets, everyone’s safe.
Turns out, that’s a lie. You can’t build sustainable savings by cutting people and replacing them with cheaper labour. Everyone from bottom to top knows this, it’s not rocket science.
The truth? Once you deliver those savings, you’ve basically signed your own layoff notice. The very success you built becomes the excuse to downsize you.
So yeah, don’t ki-l yourself trying to save a company that wouldn’t blink before cutting you loose. Do your job safely and smartly, but stop carrying the weight of “shareholder value” like it’s yours to protect.
Scr*w production, extend downtimes… f-k up regulatory stuff…. give them shockwaves… impact should be felt at market level… if nothing changed... it’s a stamp that we were not required at the first place and cheap Indian labour can sustain it.
Focus on your own value, your growth, your skills, your security. Because the system doesn’t care about you. It’ll take everything you give and still ask for more.
So stop feeding the empire, sc--w it .. they can’t offload high cost assets….those who left it’s only way to stretch your employment duration and pump your pension.
