Mostly just dead weight, myself and my friends are still around. It's the on facebook all day crowd with low performance ratings that got cut.

Wow that's a sweeping generalization and you sound like a privileged asshole.

There were some really good older technical staff who lost their jobs today. The only mark against them was their salary not their performance. There were also some young promising people that were let go as well because of bullshit hr policies.

It's entitled assholes like you that have turned BP into what it is today.

PS I'm still around yet I don't need to go on the Internet and boast about it like a meathead. Hope I never have to see you around the office you sound like a real pill.

Let's hope so. I'm hoping that it is a cycle that'll end shortly. I say that as a Petroleum Engineering Student. That being said, I'm sort of glad because it weeds out all the money chasers in the program.

What do you mean? Like the people who lie about their income to score a higher pay somewhere else? It seems this is the norm in oil and gas, perhaps everywhere but I always here this happening.

No, I mean that ever since a couple of years ago when newspapers started publishing "What is the best job to have in the country?" and all of them had Petrol engineers as their number 1 with an average starting salary of 85k+.

This caused a large influx of people into the program that were only there because they wanted to make money. That sucked for those of us who chose it because we had a passion for it for 2 reasons:

1) Classes fill up faster

2) It makes the department look bad when these people fail out. They normally do because who are in it solely for the money have less commitment than others.

Not attacking you, just out of curiosity, what made you get into it? I think most engineering majors have that problem, of course it tends move to around, in the late 90s and early 2000s it was Comp Sci / Comp Engineering that had that problem.

Its kinda just the way it works, I don't think people failing out makes the department look bad, people know what's going on. But the classes filling up sucks.
