Thread regarding Weatherford International Ltd. layoffs

1st of the year layoffs

Seems quiet. Did the "beginning of the year layoffs" occur anywhere? It seems that we dodged the bullet.

Dear -6oc1,

Not everyone this side of the Pond is quite as illiterate as the tool writing the following prose; If -5srk is an American citizen then I'd venture that this is proof of the early settlers having fuçked water-buffalo.

Plenty of openings after all the imagrants get sent back and jobs are returned to American citizens. Adios all my Latino friends .. The American labor act of 2017 is apon us

6oc1-sounds like you should stay where you are. There is no need for you to get involved in things that you have no business getting into.

Here in Europe we were wondering how a great country like the US could vote for such a president but reading some of your comments I just realized this country is actually full of stupid people without education. And now I am scared. Good luck to you all.

To the person telling someone to go work at walmart. Please go work for $9 per hour yourself. How long before you would lose your home? How many months salary do you have in savings? Don't be a d--k. Layoffs happen and they s---. To those laid off, it might be a good time to completely change your life. Sell your house. Go back to school. Make sure that your kids see the value of being highly skilled. Don't wait until your home is forclosed upon. Vote for people who believe in decent wages. Now that you are at the bottom, you see how quickly anyone could be reduced to a minimum wage job, no matter how hard they work.

I wouldn't wait on them to call me back. There are lots of jobs in the paper that pay $9-$11 per hour. If your in Texas there will be many jobs building the wall. Thanks Obama for 8 Great years of doing nothing except giving our jobs and money away..
