    Buddy who works there says CNOOC will cut 50% in the next 18 months. So expect another 500 layoffs.

    Given China is in a retaliatory mood, I thought they would fire everyone and just sell off Nexen or something.

    Funny that only Canadian economy China is destroying are mostly prairie province's.

    I'll be down at the Energy rally today at noon as well as the Global Petroleum Show this week wearing my bright yellow shirt. Trying to spark up some conversations that will hopefully lead to a job. It's a bit embarrassing, but not as embarrassing as long term unemployment.

    I think that’s actually a great idea. I’d hire you.

    Subtlety hasn't been effective, it's time to get loud. I only need one job, so if just one influential person thinks like you, it's all worth it.

    That’s a great idea man.

    Good on you, that’s initiative.
    "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents... some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new Dark Age."

    No one is going to hire grumpy cat. You have to put on a human mask to get hired and past probation.
