Might keep it, but for way less. Like I said...I've got to convince the HR people to convince the accountants that hiring cheap labor is worth it

Lol, no.
Only one CEO made over $100 million last year in the WORLD and out of the top 10 there are only a few O&G guys.
Most of these CEO's make the bulk of their money on performance of stock, so if O&G stocks plummet, they make a lot less money. (Obviously they still make 7 figures in base salary, but hardly billions)

idk, the person I'm thinking of is from Katy. They lived way beyond their means over here, went out of their housing allowance to have a massive home, went out of car allowance to have a nice car, and- heading home next week back to reality with zero to show for their time overseas.

I thought you were an ME student? I didn't realize you also had experience in management and accounting. Goddamn mechanical engineers know everything these days...

Yeah but they'll run straight for the Obama cash when the pink slips come out and the struggle to pay the notes on the F250 and double wide hits.

my dad was a shell man for 38 years. we had to move overseas in the early 90's bc it had slowed down so much. he told me, after speaking to his friends at shell that moving overseas and keeping your job isnt even an option this downturn. good luck to those families
he's retired now but if some of you have been working deepwater for some time you probably know him. he was a company man. initials BO. lived in lafayette

No, Shell is one company that is sending a lot of staff back to the U.S. right now. Not a good time for anyone.
Chevron, Seadrill, Ensco, Transocean, NOV- a lot of people being sent back
