Thank you all.
This site may not be the correct place for this but i'm thankful I got the opportunity to work with a lot of good people while I was at MRO. I'm even more thankful that I left when I did for a better opportunity.
Legacy

End of the show
That's it ladies and gentlemen, please take your personal possesions with you as you leave.
Incompetent leadership
The hubris and incompetence among supervisors and management is astounding. Too many folks with “authority” that can’t/ won’t admit they are wrong even when the evidence is directly in front of them and several people give the same root cause to an... — read more

Reminder
Marathon sucks. Terrible company with terrible leadership. Eagle Ford is the only asset and it’s dead on the vine. This can be seen by us having to make the recent acquisition just to keep the lights on. Decline curves are insane. Inventory is... — read more
What’s this?
I hear about Devon sniffing around? Our footprints align pretty close, will they make a bid for us? We are lean and that’s prime for acquisition.
