I have noticed some very strange goings on around campus. I know the execs have been locked in rooms/ calls discussing something.
I have no idea what but something is about to happen.

Something is going on. Just don’t know how big and if it’s a merger or reserves acquisition. My boss was giddy one day and said something was happening but couldn’t tell us. Then the other week he was locked up on the other side of campus for several days.
Something “big” is not supervisor training for wfh. That’s chicken sh-t.
Unless we are talking peons in manufacturing or technology (no disrespect intended I’m just using vernacular of id--t senior management). But still that is a small affair for a large number.
M&A people need to speak up.
New revision to WFH policy, cracking down. Supervisor training first on what is written and what is intended.
Supervisors are being coached on how to administer the WFH policy “correctly”. Why do something that will obviously pi-s off employees (and the supervisors) unless you’re trying to have the appearance to an outsider that your assets are operated consistently.
Does make a lot of sense now. It'll take forrrevvver to get FTC and regulatory approvals. Don't hold your breath.
Selling the Dallas headquarters suddenly makes sense. They would have never done that if it meant they would work in Houston long term. Have executives been flying to California?
Merger going to happen. Explains:
- Why they won’t stop attrition. Mergers are based on eliminating redundant positions.
- Why we are stockpiling cash
- Why management is hiding out and not visible
