Another Je$$e Jackass shakedown.
He must have squandered all the protection money he received from Texaco.
Remember to thank Jesse when the regular hits $4.00 per gallon at the pumps.
Somebody told him that oil is black gold.
Exactly. The very same tactics used by Al Sharpton -- buying stock in media companies in order to combat racist lyrics in hip-hop. Jackson and Sharpton are in everything for the money. Nothing more, nothing less.
Texaco, Shell Workers Fight Discrimination
Worthly of Note: Oil; Employment
"Global enrollment in geosciences and other university majors relevant to the oil industry is dropping at the same time that the demand to devise new fuels and refining processes is rising. In the U.S., enrollment in geosciences hit a peak of 35,000 students in 1982 but now meanders around the 5,000 level, according to Scott Tinker, director of the Bureau of Economic Geology at the University of Texas."
"It is now around 1965 levels," he said. While enrollment in these programs is rising in China and a few other nations, it's mostly below the level required in nations where oil is being produced." "The picture is even worse at the graduate level. In 1982, about 4,000 Ph.D.s and master's degrees were awarded in geosciences in the U.S., and nearly half the recipients went into the oil industry, said Raul Restucci, executive vice president of exploration and production in the Middle East at Shell. Now only about 400 to 600 advanced degrees are handed out, and only 20 percent of recipients go to work for oil companies."
"The industry is having a real tough time filling jobs," Restucci said. "People availability will be a key constraint for a supply side response to increasing demand. In Houston, half of the work force will retire in the next 10 to 12 years."
correction to tagline.
Sharpton and Jackson are both worthless pieces of camel dung.
Did Jesse turn up some sinecure-less bastards?
When will Jesse target the NBA on Diversity?
EEO Officer during the Trans Alaska Pipeline building? I was working in HR for NC Machinery during that project....I believe it about the union reps...but, I sure do NOT remember ANY EEO officers - we’re talking 1977-79....
Oil company jobs aren’t like gubmint jobs. You need to read and write to work for Exxon or Conoco, and high school drop outs need not apply.
IOW, one of my sons wants an Exxon distributorship in Illinois.....
I bought the book, got about 3/4 of the way threw it, couldn’t hold down the bile any longer. That guy is an F’in crook.
There needs to be a big time investigation into Operation Push or whatever it is called these days. I bet it is crooked from the word go.
My MIL gave her copy to me because she could finish it either; it made her too mad to realize the guy wasn’t in jail. I couldn’t finish it either for the same reason.
“He did this a few years ago. Must be running short on cash for his leftist, racist crusades”
Time for a new “SHAKEDOWN” to fill the coffers, and with oil companies making record profits(a fact not lost on Jackson) he will prevail.
“That guy is an F’in crook”
Therrrrrrrre ya go!
