Thread regarding Shell Oil layoffs

The only thing we were pioneers and innovative about at Shell was in developing Deepwater Drilling and Production in the Gulf of Mexico.

It turns out that we weren't even really pioneers at that, what we really did was pay for all the research and development that Chevron, BP and Exxon needed to come into the deepwater business on our dollars spend, and kick our ass We're not only dumb, we're dumb and dumber!

This post accurately reflects the facts. The responses made by a few of our Anglo-Dutch colleagues are illustustrative of the sissified bollocks we deal with in RDS.

PREDICTION: RDS+BG enter the foot notes of history. But the first quartile of footnotes, so we can be proud of that.

Almost all of you and more than 90% of your colleagues are going to be without jobs, all your savings and retirement money will be gone in less than a year (or two, maximum). all your pension money will be lost. whatever you have on your bank accounts is not going to be accessible by your or your family. no chance to get any money from ATMs. No jobs, no money. Empty grocery stores.

Agree with you, Shell has always been guided by its competitors, just take Exxon example...people over at "the colonies" certainly know how to do bussiness!.......but wait!you don't tell Shell what to do! this ego sh-- has left us in the clouds and as a result we are left bad assmanagement driving us to the ground.....as for you Mr.Empire, FYI Texas,New orleans has never been in the colonies and since you seems to be high enough in the pyramid scheme, do us a favor an pull you sh-- out, take it back with you......btw, you don't need to make any phone call for me, you can have it all, i'm out of the hole

BALDERDASH!!!! Only a rogue employee from the operation in the colonies would post such rubbish!!! Do me a favour and post your name so that I can personally have you terminated or even have you called home to be run through!! It is whippersnappers like you who give our great enterprise a bad name!

It's a volatile industry. It's a creative industry. Some great people, some great companies.
