Just lost my job to this virus crap

Sorry man. I wish you well in the quest to find another job. Maybe post your qualifications and what you are looking for here and see if somebody on MM has a few leads?
 
Man, feel for you. Keep the chin up and hopefully you'll find another soon.
This C-19 thing has been serious for many, but watching one side of this country try to completely decimate our economy has been a real eyeopener.
 
The energy transition act is the most stupid, assinine thing to ever come out of the roundhouse.

Ropinfool - not sure how tied you are to NM, but now may be an opportune time to pack up and leave. I hear SD is very favorable right now...
 
Lost mine also brother. Sucks cause there aint any other work around. Everything in the area is closing its doors. Anybody hiring guides?
 
Sorry to hear about your job loss. Between the Governor getting rid of the oil and gas and covid nobody is gona have a job pretty soon!!!
 
Scare people with a virus, force them to wear masks and place them in quarantine

Count the number of dead every second of every day, in every News Headline. By the way, ninety-nine and eight-tenths of the people who get the virus, recover.
About one to two tenths of one percent who get the virus, die. Most all of them have other medical problems.

Did you catch that? Less than 1/2 of a percent die.

Close businesses = 35,000,000+ instantly unemployed.

Remove entertainment and prohibit Recreation; Closing parks, gyms, bars, restaurants, sports.

No dating. No touching. Isolate people. Dehumanize them.

Close Temples and Churches, prohibit worship. Create a vacuum and let depression, anxiety, hopelessness and desperation set in.

Then... ignite hatred and civil unrest, creating Civil War.

Empty the prisons because of the virus and fill the streets with criminals.

Send in Antifa to vandalize property, as if they are freedom fighters.

Undermine the law, Riot, Loot and Attack all Law Enforcement, but tell government to order a stand-down.

Then... Defund Law Enforcement and abolish Police.

We are all being played by those who want to destroy America! This is how you destroy a Nation from within, and in very short order.

Will it work, I guess that depends on you and me.
 
Newmont still exists???
Sure does and with Gold at $2045/Oz today, you can bet we wont be shutting down any time soon!! All time Quarterly earnings last quarter and the "Covid essential pay" expired end of July while markets hitting all time highs. Go Figure!!

I sent you a pm...
 
As soon as they get Biden in the White House which I heard they want to rename that too covid will be history and the liberals will be able to tear down America without any interference.

No interference at all, from anyone?

I will continue to call it the White House. The National Anthem will always be 'The Star Spangled Banner' for me. My loyalty will always be God, family, country in that order.

I lost my job (career) similar to the thread owner. Jobs are petty compared to freedom. I refuse to lose that.

Amen brother!!! Unfortunately we are being drowned by cowards and ignorance. Most are afraid to walk the walk when push comes to shove. We need more people to stand up and not take this ****!! Yes, it sounds easier to say then to do, but like roadrunner said, freedom is everything. If they take that away our jobs and hobbies will be worthless to us.

But we have to stand up for that, We already proved majority of people just lay down and panic. If biden wins who will organize and facilitate the civil war? Are you wiling to lay down life and limb for that cause? That is what is on the horizion if Biden wins
 
Why would anyone who values freedom and the right to self agency be okay with state socialism?

The young men and boys in the early 1940's were willing to, why should we be any different? Are we really that yellow today...?

Sadly yes, most are. Only care about what they are doing that day and how it affects them. There is no such thing as selfless anymore in our ME society....
 
Looking for a finished carpenter. Excellent pay and benefits. Need to re-locate to the Mtns. of northern Utah
 
Wapiti, I wish I could take you up on the offer. Have some time in residential carpentry. In the middle of building my family a house now. No way the wife would ever leave here.
 
they shut it down for good or just over the virus bs for a short time. I have some friend out there that work there

Although they have shut it down, is it up for sale? Regardless of what the misguided energy intentions are for this state, we still need oil and gasoline/diesel to function as a society.
 
wow seems crazy that is a lot of jobs gone for hat area. maybe the wake up all to start voting the other way. hoping he best for all my new mexico friends
 
Still wondering which refinery shut down. Bloomfield, Grants, ???? Sorry but I don’t get out much anymore.

My youngest is a petro major at school of mines and my oldest is a mechanical who will graduate next year. Both have started to take a keen interest in our economic suicide.

Trump 2020 !
 
bloomfield has been shut down for years, now the gallup refinery. the only refinery left in NM is down south. not much industry left in NM.
 
If the liberal Governor put as much effort into real jobs for NM as she does trying to make the state into a movie location we might have something but it seems she is more interested in helping criminals, movie industry, illegal immigrants and protesters.
 
If NM started getting “real” jobs the New Mexico you love will be a thing of the past. Be careful what you wish for
 
LANL needs mechanical engineers, if you're interested in working for the gov.
A job is a job, I suppose, but I'd rather walk through 10 miles of broken glass and razor wire while undergoing a quadruple root canal than work for that bunch.

They shuttered one of our bar area refineries last week. The price of gas is astounding and now that they shut one refinery down they will charge more. They say we are not using the same amount of gas but I see way too may cars on the road for that to be true.....
Sorry to hear about your job loss hope you can find another job soon.

I'm sad to hear that. I've been out of the loop for five years now and didn't realize they had shut down.

My kids got put on notice their API scholarships may be impacted. I know that the API golf tournament at SJCC is about half the size it was 10 years ago.

Petro's still get the big starting salaries (as of last year - lol). You might have to go to siberia to earn it though. I suppose if you are a young man who wants to see the world it could still work.
 
The problem with the petroleum industry is the industry itself. It's not self-disciplined enough these days for the market we live in. The industry may very well be the highest paying jobs, but they have the highest volatility in consistent employment as well.

Until millions see the error in their ways of canceling fossil fuels as a viable and predictable energy source, I'd council graduating seniors (high school) and incoming freshmen to steer clear.
 
Northrup Grumman in Utah is hiring for about 600 positions. Other than a death nothing is harder than going home to tell the family your job is gone.


It F-ing Sucks!!!!!

Sorry man. That's all I got
