Thread regarding Chevron Corp. layoffs

What’s office security supposed to do if they perceive someone is not masked when they should be? Will they confront the offending unmasked? .... Stop! I command thee to mask or be banished from the office kingdom!

Yah that should work.

Not going to take that bait again. Nice try. People are allowed to go into the office if they want to. Security is there, everything. Get back to work, people!
Sure, I am aware that all of the flakes will milk the WFH allowance until they force people to come in.

@7uin+1bbuzjLr

Yes, I 100% agree with what you said and every day brings forth new revelations that contradict what the "experts" were saying publicly.

However, Chevron is a different animal, one that is increasingly woke. They've been coddling the fear-addicted for way too long and as a result still insist that contrary to science claim that masks must be worn by healthy, asymptomatic individuals.

So what facility or building do you work at/in? I can see some being less work than others, but now you have me intrigued.

@7leh+1bbuzjLr

Quite the contrary, I applaud you for being a bada$$. What are you prepared to do if you get called out on it? I've already reached out to seek guidance on this.

@7thu, Yes, that is correct, does that make you angry, dear?

So @7zzn+1bbuzjLr,

Are you vaccinated or not? I believe this is the key subject in this post. From your reply you've indicated that you're not masked.

So are you not vaccinated, not reporting your vax status and going about your day without concern of being called out?

Fake news. As someone mentioned already , many of us are back at work, no masks, no questions asked. Get over yourselves already. It's over and you're out of excuses. .

@7suj not sure I get your sublime point, is it that you expected to be laid off and missed the last fat severance pkg and are butthurt about it so you troll this site as the "layoff troll"?

@6yyf+1bbuzjLr:
Layoff Troll: You could tell on everyone by letting the moderators of this site know that people are not posting about layoff topics and see if they delete all of the posts? Would that make you feel better?

I understand each floor in 1500 will get a partitioned meeting room. There will be an area sealed off with plexiglass for the unvaccinated to sit while attending, sort of like a gallery. Works for me.

I don't know who would be worried or would give a flip about the mask policy at the office when they have been laid off and are seeking information about and from other laid off employees.

@6iup

Curious...what location are you at? AFAIK most of the on-shore organization in NA hasn't reached stage 1 yet and most people are still working remotely.

Fake news again. Most of us are back at work, I haven't seen a mask in weeks. I don't wear one and haven't had the vaccine. No one cares. The political hoax(to try to make one side look bad) is over people. Move along and get on with your lives. Yawn.....

@6tlh+1bb: Do you mean you shouldn’t have to ask? As if people will always abide by the policy? They won’t.

@5aso

You don't have to ask about one's vaccination status when 1) not being vaccinated means you're required to wear a piece of clothing on your face, where people who are vaccinated do not 2) not offering your vaccination status is the same as admitting you've not taken the vaccine, given leaders have tied getting the vaccine to meaning you're a good person

@6rwa, (same poster as @4rpd ) What you posted is false and misleading information, but your irrational fears are duly noted. Chevron can not and will not do any such thing. Enjoy your day at work as I am mine, no mask, no vaccine.......

@4ktj Don’t take my word for it, read the text of the legislation yourself.

You could always just get a vaccine and/or wear a mask instead of trying to turn not doing either into some silly moral argument over individual liberty.

The non-maskers/vaxxers will be the first to sue the company when they get sick at work. Guaranteed.

Deems like there's a lot of deep thinking going on out there. The hears are-a-grinding! Should we or shouldn't we upload a fake card? Should we or shouldn't we do it at all? What to do what do to stick it to the man! Where's Cheetoh when you really need him?

The new Texas law actually only 1) prohibits state government from issuing vaccine passports and 2) prohibits business doing business with the state from requiring such passports of customers. It says nothing about employees but in fact says businesses must continue doing all they can to combat the virus and spread.

"a governmental entity in this state may not issue a vaccine passport, vaccine pass, or other standardized documentation to certify an individual ’s COVID-19 vaccination status to a third party for a purpose other than health care or otherwise publish or share any individual ’s COVID-19 immunization record or similar health information for a purpose other than health care.
(c) business in this state may not require a customer to provide any documentation certifying the customer ’s COVID-19 vaccination or post-transmission recovery on entry to, to gain access to, or to receive service from the business. A business that fails to comply with this subsection is not eligible to receive a grant or enter into a contract payable with state funds.
(d)Notwithstanding any other law, each appropriate state agency shall ensure that businesses in this state comply with Subsection (c) and may require compliance with that subsection as a condition for a license, permit, or other state authorization necessary for conducting business in this state.
(e)This section may not be construed to:
(1)Aestrict a business from implementing COVID-19 screening and infection control protocols in accordance with state and federal law to protect public health;

I predict that it will be socially acceptable to volunteer your vaccine info but rude to ask someone if they have been vaccinated. Interesting times we live in.

@4pjr

The people I've spoken to who aren't vaccinated are fine with abiding by the mask mandate. They might have personal opinions that are divergent from the policy but I didn't get the feel that they were willing to lose their job over getting caught in a situation where they've falsely posed as vaccinated.

The issue they are concerned with is what others will think of them, in their compliance with the mask policy, as an unvaccinated person. Leaders in the company, in government & other social influencers have turned a person's vaccination status into many things other than an individual's immunity to COVID. You can't put that genie back in the bottle.

@4pjr

It's do or don't do, but if you do, do be sure you do not do something d-mb because when it's all said and done, you'll be done wondering why did I do what I done did?

Upload your vax card or don't. Wear a mask or don't. It's your choice. But if there is ever a problem or an issue you had better be prepared to produce legitimate and real evidence that you have been vaccinated if you say you have been vaccinated. That's really all this is.

@4rpd, What you posted is false and misleading information, but your irrational fears are duly noted. Chevron can not and will not do any such thing.

@3bdb As with all things Texas, read the fine print. Chevron can move forward with this policy under this legislation. They (Chevron) also line the pockets of the people who came up with it. Do you really think Abbot & Co would hem-up their donors? You must be new to the state if you think so

@3hsb+1bbuzjLr

They know darn well there will be discrimination and DP is both signaling and rubbing peoples noses in it.

I'm glad he displayed his true colors on this issue because the state of Texas has basically cancelled his little tyrant plans: https://twitter.com/GregAbbott_TX/status/1401939616630984704

"I’m signing a law today that prohibits any business operating in Texas from requiring vaccine passports or any vaccine information.

Texas is open 100% without any restrictions or limitations or requirements."

Even if managers aren't able to access vaccination records, the point about the policy introducing opportunities for discrimination is still valid. Mandating a required return to on-site work policy that includes two sets of masking/distancing policies for two different groups of people will inherently create division...especially since you can easily identify who belongs in which camp based on appearance.

Thanks to the wizards of smart that developed social engineering campaigns that assign virtue to your vaccination status (care a lot, get a shot) we've created a situation where the minority of people wearing a mask will predictably be considered non-virtuous....and all the bag of assumptions that come along with it (science denier, conspiracy theorist, Trump voter, selfish, not a team player, etc.)

The last email from DP, on the new mask policy, even went out of their way to remind people it's not okay to discriminate against people who choose to wear a mask, and ARE vaccinated...but no call out for withholding judgement for people who are required to wear a mask because they AREN'T vaccinated. I don't think that omission was by accident.

It’s easy to determine if someone is vaccinated. No need for H&M to create a list. CEMREC has installed monitors at all entrances to check for the Bill Gates microchip. If it goes off, no mask needed.

Too long did not read.

You all are over-reacting to all this. Get your own vaccine, or not, then let others do as they like. Darwin's law will prevail.

@1mst, Well, since I am a previously laid off employee who now has a new job with higher pay and better benefits, If you don't mind, I'll stay and watch you guys complain about the deplorable conditions that you have to work under, and I was fortunate enough to leave behind, It's simply too entertaining. but thanks anyway, lol!

@1gnj+1bbuzjLr: Thanks for the lesson. Now go back to your job search and leave us to post, chat, whine or whatever on any site we choose. You are not welcome.

@1pqd, This is only a chat room to pathetic losers who not only have no life but also don't have the internet savvy or presence to realize all the other various websites specifically for that purpose. For everyone else familiar with the internet and also computer literate, this is thelayoff.com, which is the web address (URL) below your title bar, and you are in the subcategory "Thread regarding Chevron Corp. layoffs". See above.
You're welcome

I am a TL and has access in the tool to see the status of my reports, for like a day, then it was removed so this is not true. Also, there was never a communication to supervisors saying that we hat to monitor or enforce this. This is probably an assumption made by the OP.

@1krv+1bbuzjLr: This is totally a chat room. It's never all about just layoffs.

@1kzf, As far as that goes, why would anyone anonymously post work related drivel only applicable to current full time employees on a LAYOFFS board? That's suspicious , to say the least , as it is. This is not a chat room for Chevron employees, contrary to popular belief, it's a site specific to layoffs and related info., hence the name. lol

OP is baiting the line to see what kind of fish he can catch...ie: measure the responses. So obvious.

If you are unwilling to do your assigned role you should be honest with your supervisor and step down. Instead you out some anonymous nonsense online where you can hide and pretend at work you are doing your job. No balllls.

You will do it and you will like it.

Easy. Don't ask. Don't tell.
