Any word on dates? Can managers man up and tell us all?

All speculation.. And the ones who decide know we are living on anxiety.. THEY DO NOT CARE.. We are rows in an XLS spreadsheet.. When things are good you are part of a team.. Unlike most teams that know you are only as strong as your weakest link.. That sh!t does not apply when the chips are down for E&P companies.. Nothing personal it's just business.. The profession we chose.. It was good while it lasted.. You are not the only one going through this..

Any word on dates?

as I understand it, offers for a date or any intimate favor is welcomed and will decrease your chance of getting laid off. remember devon management is crawling with crabs so clean up after you are done.

APOSTLES: What's the buzz? Tell me what's a-happening. What's the buzz? Tell me what's a-happening.

JESUS: Why should you want to know?

Don't you mind about the future?

Don't you try to think ahead?

Save tomorrow for tomorrow;

Think about today instead.

Agree with that... Take your severance and run

Those so-called managers you speak of are limp-dicks. No "manning up" is going to happen under those circumstances. You're on your own, cowboy, so get on your stupid horse and ride out of there while you still have a chance.

What difference does it make? You're already looking for new employment, and you aren't going to walk out now without a severance package. It's likely that your manager has little say in the matter anyhow. Management says to rank your people, then management comes back with the list of names getting cut.

Be a man and take your medicine. This is an opportunity to grow your character. You're always bragging about how much of a badass you are at being resourceful, this will be your opportunity to prove it.
