AUM management held a meeting with employees last week to reportedly discuss VSEP and shuttering one of the melamine plants

Ummm. They only have 2 melamine plants and they shutdown/mothball one of them since 2016 or 2017. Is only one melamine plant running years now. :/

I know that one was cannibalized to support the other one.
Idle and shutter are two different things.

Yeh but they already retrenched people for that first melamine plant already back in 2016 or 2017, whenever it had mothballed. Are you saying the melamine business is closing down for mhtl with the 2nd plant closing down?

Just got feedback that while the AUM management spoke of Covid and the negative effects on the economy, and this seeming second surge is making it worse, No direct talk about retrenchment, yet, but when the preamble is how hard things are, some sort of pain generally isn't far away, except if you worked at PT of course, and owned two refrigerators

[sMASH]

that coudl be false alarm. some of the middle management like to weild big stick to get the field slaves to bow they head, jess for so.

normally i woudl say 'doh take dem on' except in this case, the no gas situation is the overlying determinant. product could be how good price, if it eh ha no gyas to make any to sell, all the staff is a cost.

Why beat up? If the entire Estate closes down, Train 1 will more than cover those lost revenues.

This has zero truth to it

[Redman]

Lol

Please don't tell the workers how to run the shop.

And don't take advice from white folk.

[DreamWeaver]

So, train 1 on track for start up and back into production by weekend?

I heard this from an ex-AUM employee who maintains ties to present workers there.

And stop being a dummy when you can't even spell plant.

AUM aside, Proman's message about M4 and M5000 was hinting towards April being manageable but after that it's gonna be trouble. Guess we'll know in about 2 weeks time if they will initiate vsep/retrenchment. Actually heard the Proman head email the staff Friday and told them there was no change to the negotiations. If anyone has a copy of the email, feel free to share since I got no hard proof, only word of mouth from proman ppl

This negotiation has allegedly been going on since last year, I don't see what a couple of weeks is really gonna do.

Hello tuner friends,

after reading a lot of this thread, I've found out that it's true....it's really better to do med than engineering.

Hello tuner friends,

Trinidad kinda melting down everywhere right now. Med probably aint even a safe bet if we gonna end up like venezuela. Today some of the venezuelans on the streets were probably some of the brightest in their country. Now theyre doing what they must to survive. Honestly the best education to have would be to hunt, farm, fish and basically learn to be self sustaining. Modern education is worthless in a collapsed economy. Then again, Walking Dead did make it seem that doctors are gods, so go for it. You never know

Hello Kenjo,

I was referring to the stability of the job....at least it's less likely you get fired (eventually when you do get a job as a doctor.)

How likely do you think Trinidad ends up like Venezuela?

Personally I don't see it happening. Venezuela ended up the way it did because of socialism, and the sanctions that followed because of it coupled with Chavez' destruction of their oil fields. As one local economist said things in Trinidad are going to get worse over the next year or so and then level of to a lifestyle much lower than we had a decade ago. But I don't see it Venezuela level of bad.
Regarding a self sustaining lifestyle you need land to farm, hunt and fish on. You tube channels that promote the off the grid lifestyle doesn't show just how much money it takes to live a seemingly simply life. Nothing simple about it. What we need to learn is to live within our means. Y'all really need a new flat screen every black Friday sale from price mart? Ease of the boat ride and jordans, actually cook, if unemployed keep your tail home and take off the data plan. You'd be surprised how much money you can save. Can't be zessing in the wettest tida with rims but living in a 10x10. Common sense cultural mindset changes are all we need and we will do fine.
And medicine is a better choice or even law. Always sick people to treat and scumbags to defend

Thanks for the response.

You said it will reach a "level of to a lifestyle much lower than we had a decade ago." Do you ever see it getting back to the standard of living we had in the 90s and early 2000s?

With the world heading to green energy and all we have to offer is oil, then no. However it would've be all doom and gloom. The caribbean will still use ICE vehicles and hence oil for a long time.

Does Trinidad still have a relevant Energy Sector when compared to the world

Any views on the offshore platforms that being hit by COVID-19?

[Numb3r4]

It may require those platforms coming offline for sanitization, this may affect the supply of gas.
However this has a definite timeline and the platforms can be back up so it is a hiccup but shouldn't be too bad.

Do we know which platforms or companies?
