Thread regarding Saudi Aramco layoffs

On my way back to the golden prison after an enjoyable vacation. Don't know how many more times I can do this.

Saudi Aramco is heaven on earth compared to some US Corporations. https://www.thelayoff.com/t/JpLz7lj#replies

Yes it has become a prison with golden bars.

What a disappointment.

Considering working for Saudi Aramco? Don’t. It is a mistake that you will regret while you spend years to untangle from.

We don't kill nobody unless you make us pay at the gas pump or you are a lone helpless woman

You are very safe if you are in a howling black-flag carrying mob of our brothers amiiiin

Everything is written in the Holly Book. There are rulers and there are slaves. Believers and non-believers. You are slave and non-believer. The Holly Book says that we have to treat slaves fairly. You are slave. We treat you fairly. We don't kill nobody. Amiiiiin.

The maids that cast spells on Saudi husbands? Yeah, getting sodomized then thrown out a window is a very safe environment.

It was safe. Now if you leave a bike outside it's gone. Let your girls play outside and they get bothered by local boys.

That's because the camps are now wide open to every single help yourself relative of every company employee and have become "dump your children" sites for Saudi employees to leave their children freely roaming.

Saudis and Saudi children by the way are NOT brought up to respect non-Saudis or their property.

I’m pretty sure the safety question was within the context of working for Aramco. I agree there was an issue with unpaid workers stuck here but it was also a time when nobody was paying companies for their work. Aramco has always paid its bills. If that ever stopped, I think most Aramcons would have the resources to leave. I am only aware of a small number of Aramcons that got stuck here and that was because they broke some serious laws. Most lawbreakers just get deported immediately. With regard to crazy drivers, expats are not at higher risk than anyone else. The drivers are equal opportunity destroyers. And, no disrespect, I will not venture on the roads after June 1. In all seriousness, most large cities in many western countries bring much higher risk than Saudi Arabia. You can criticize and complain all you want but don’t distort the truth. On the Aramco camps, you can sleep with windows open, never lock a door, go jogging alone 24/7. You could leave your car unlocked and running while you go into a shop except that it is against GI. “Deviant” groups are few and far between and they have little interest in expats.

Don't forget about all of the domestic house maids that mysteriously jump from fifth floor windows.

Sure it is. Tens of thousands of unpaid workers get stuck in saudi arabia every year with no way to exit unless they cough up huge fines for their “crime” of “overstaying”. Very safe 👌😂

Only from crazy drivers. Otherwise Saudi is a very safe place.

are workers from other countries lives in danger ?your response will assist alot

Saudi math: 5% of two trillion dollars, five thousand dollars apiece, can buy an easy work-free life for 20 million citizens AND pay a dividend to the non-saudis who bought in.

GDP per capita is twenty thousand and they can sustain a PPP of forty thousand.

Yeah, that's gonna work

I called you a retard because you picked a PPP based on a subsidized consumer basket that has been ruled unsustainable and is being lifted. Your local subsidized "purchasing power" has nothing to do either with your economy size or your productivity.

Told you in an earlier post that you are going to feel this by summer. Deeply.

Qatar and the US on a per capita basis generate the same GDP. Has nothing to do with population. It's because those two economies like Puerto Rico have productive people.

The whole population does not consist of officies with titles who produce nothing, know what I mean? Titles like "analyst".

You need to leave.

You call me retard, but you pick the wrong economic indicator it’s per capita PPP you should be choosing. Even your link proves me correct if you choose the right indicator.

As for Qatar, it’s because they have a small population with a large natural resource bounty.

They're catching up. If they double theirs. 😂😂😂😂😂

These comments completely represent the people who own, manage, and operate saudi aramco. It's beyond clueless. They're in a fantasy dimension

IMF looks pretty close based on the actual 2017 numbers. All I see is that you run along at about 50% of Qatar. Maybe they work harder over there.

But i know a LOT of saudis who are wrong. Especially in an unmedicated manic fit about their own relevance. Is that genetic or is that also caused by excessive inbreeding? Hard to tell. The drooling and mumbling and shifty stories all run together. Get lost. There are a million sources that all say the same thing.

https://tradingeconomics.com/saudi-arabia/gdp-per-capita

Here's another source retard. It's still $21,000.

Your national IQ is showing again. Maybe you should review your numbers.

PPP doesn't mean sht in a subsidized economy. Hope you weren't counting on that to bring your scores up. Lying about GDP isn't as easy as say lying to an auditor.

No. The date of the link states 2004, but the CIA data is 2017 for both Saudi and the US. You would have known that if you had read the information. You didn't. No attention to detail. No wonder you are gone. Also your link for 2018 is a PROJECTION by IMF outlook of October 2016, it's not actual and like all IMF projections will be wrong...unless you know of an IMF projection that became fact. Just one. Not two. Just one...But you would then have to read...very carefully.

It won't be long from 2004? "Walk the talk" mr ANAList. You have a long long climb.

You're actually ranked 39th.

http://statisticstimes.com/economy/projected-world-gdp-capita-ranking.php

You? Posted 2004 data? That's going way back moron. It's 2018.

The US is 8th. In the top 10 with Qatar. Who's falling retard? Not the US.

No wonder you're worth a quarter of an expat. You're so stupid you post sht you can't even read or understand. Puerto Rico is even ranked above your worthless dump.

You’re an f’ing idiot. What do you not understand about gdp?

Per capita income? Umm, we have 340+ million people. How many Saudis are there?

You’re bragging that we get paid more in your country? You should be insulted that they pay me 5 times more than you to do the same job, but you’re not. Says a lot about you.

Ultimately, God gave you a brain, learn to use it before you make yourself appear even more dumb than you already are.

You seem proud of going back a Dollar multi-millionaire. Is that because that's something you would never have achieved back in the US? The US (20) is only one place ahead of Saudi Arabia (21) on the 2017 GDP per capita lists https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/rankorder/2004rank.html . It won't belong before Saudi Arabia overtakes the US, the same way the other 19 countries did. Once the deadwood floats back to the US with their end of service benefits they can try and integrate back into US society. Maybe you can become a shopping mall rent-a-cop.

Yet the GDP of Houston, Tx is $550 billion. One city.

The GDP of your entire dump, saudis, expats, everything is $650 billion.

You're swimmimg in a pond you have no business swimming in.

The list is easy to assemble, if you really want it, just visit any expat website that gives instructions on how to enter and leave countries on a work visa. (i.e.) Philippines http://www.immigration.gov.ph/faqs/emigration-clearance-certificate-ecc I picked that one because it used to be a former Territory of the US before gaining independence from its colonial power... clearly you cant hold on to anything because the people want to be independent, just ask Texans what they think of the Union, or any Southerner ...

As for rubble, its because we know how to make houses out of concrete and not just wood that most people build barns out of. You don't have as much as rubble in the US because it either burns in California wild fires, gets blown away in Florida hurricanes, or floats away in Louisiana or Texas after every flood. Does Puerto Rico have power yet? How many months was that? As for Detroit... that is just decay... a forewarning of things to come. As I said, Canada, is nice, they have healthcare, resources, nice people.

I hear music. "Ima member of the country club...."

Hey retard: where our "plenty of countries" exit visa list?

We've been holding back our laughing for days waiting on it.

Just between you and me dude - are most of them located in the "region of rubble"? Speak up sonny. Walk the talk.

Good. Then we see no need for you to expand or invest there.

It is unwise to put your property and food supplies in the hands of those whose property you do not respect.

Last I checked syria, yemen, and kuwait were reduced to rubble by you and your religious brothers. Iraq was reduced to rubble for doing it to someone else. Your cousins in Afghanistan kicked off their own demise.

I wonder why all the rubble is concentrated in one region. Any common denominator?

Canadian healthcare system is fantastic, as is Cuba compared to the US, just ask Michael Moore. I suppose if you bomb other nations then yes there will be rubble. Empires come and go. Ask the Turks, Romans, Brits, etc. The US just does not recognize it’s on the descent and others such as Russia and China are on the ascent. Everyone understands the US is retreating from global affairs as it can not afford to throw its weight around. Russia and China are doing whatever they want, when they want. Ukraine. Tibet. Climate Change. US cannot even afford to maintain its crumbling infrastructure without introducing new taxes.

1400 years to build something somewhere nice and this saudi recommends Canada.

THAT is what's sad.

To right, I was ex-military and can attest to the fact that those schools are indeed rubble, and the right to a public education is almost unattainable in some of those countries. I’ve been to some of those camps as well.

Saudi guy...wanna guess where these camps, destroyed schools, and hospitals are located?

Hint: they share a similar religion and archaic way of thinking as you do. Yep, the good ol’ Middle East and some parts of Africa, where coincidentally Islamist have taken over.

So please spare us your thoughts about what you think you know of the western world and its economical situation.

America, and any other will be around far longer than your country will be. At that time, you’ll be the one wishing to emigrate lest your children end up in such camps as those in Syria.

What’s really sad about it all, is that God have your people the wealth to be different, sustainable even and you squandered it all via corrupt leadership and basically amongst people looking out for their own interest.

Good luck.

I see social fabric unravelling somewhere LOL but not at home.

There are always lunatics with guns. Whole countries full of them in some regions. In some of them the lunatics are in charge.

Usually in places like that the schools end up as rubble and the children end up in camps.

What's strange about those places is that when the lunatics take charge they start making it look like saudi arabia.

Followed by no schools and camping children.

So now saudi social fabric is unwinding.

Almost seems planned.

The dutch are still around. But they were, and are, self-sufficient.

You are not.

From a historical perspective there is a very high probability that you won't be around much longer. The national model is unsustainable.

My guess is about two more years of national failures are left. After that it's looking like you will either get to work or starve.

So was Holland in the days of Tulip fever, your infrastructure is crumbling, your national debt is soaring, your children get killed in school by lunatics with guns, you cannot drink the water in some cities and your social fabric is unraveling and that’s only what your President mentioned. You should emigrate whilst you have the chance. Canada is nice. Nice people. Great Healthcare system.

Did you forget your glowing post about investment opportunities in the US? Of course you did. You're a retard.

We already told you to invest somewhere else. Our S&P dropped by one Aramco a few days ago then gained back a half aramco the next day. We don't need your money.

Since you're the only country in the world who has lost diplomatic immunity it seems anyone in the US can sue you. As to sanctions? You made them easy by not being self sufficient.

You stopped farming because you are rapidly running out of water. Like egypt and syria did. We are not going to need sanctions

.

We just have to keep feeding you rope.

It’s still the #1 economy on this planet. You probably wouldn’t know that coming from a third world cesspool so your ignorance is justifiable.

There will be no sanctions against Saudi. You can’t even bring a lawsuit in the US, never mind d convince anyone for sanctions. The world just ignores the US, it’s list it’s relevance.

There used to be huge farms here. All very heavily subsidized. The largest John Deere dealership in the world was in Riyadh. Heavy into center pivot irrigation. It was just much cheaper to import and subsidies were removed. They did try though.

Like flipping a switch when the sanction-ees can't feed themselves and can't do fck-all about it either.

That's some great planning.

I would have suggested self-sufficiency but I'm not advising them anymore.

We are aware. It makes sanctions soooooooo easy.......

Nothing wrong with imported food. You must not be aware that Saudi Arabia bought huge tracts of agricultural land and farms around the world to ensure the needs of the nation are met. Europe, Asia, Australia, Americas, Africa. Good planning...
