    How are people supposed to know if I still have a job or not without a poll.

    Let’s boycott this thread.

    A few friends at Husky, Eng and G&G, made it through. But then were told another huge cut expected in March. What a shitshow

    The numbers CBC is reporting:

    The majority of the layoffs of 1,720 to 2,150 positions were expected to take place in Calgary, where the two firms are headquartered. It's anticipated those layoffs will occur in stages.

    Back when I was making these threads we had polls, you young wiper snappers just go around calling everything "MEGA" thinking it holds the same weight.

    Buddy of mine at Cenovus got the can today along with one other team member on his team of about 4 people. His direct supervisor and two levels above him claim to have had no clue it was coming. In his words the pattern seems to be last in = first out. He was about 3 years with the company and the other person was about 3 or 4 from his team. In conversations with other groups he work(ed) directly with it was the same.

    Sucks (a few months of severance isn't enough) and the guys who lived through big gain decades keep holding on.
    Do people even retire anymore?

    People were relying on a few more big decades to afford to retire

    LOL true. Only way people retire these days from O&G is if they're firmly pushed out the door.

    My only O&G severance was 3.3 weeks. Didn't get steady work for 4.5 years.

    Forgive me if it's painfully obvious, but how did you get .3 of a week in severance?
