Lake Charles, Louisiana-based Calcasieu Refining, an independent refinery producing liquefied petroleum gas, naphtha, kerosene, and diesel fuel from crude oil, has announced that 69 employees will be laid off at the idled facility that was severely damaged by the recent Hurricane Laura. The layoffs are scheduled for December 1, 2020.
The decision was driven by the global downturn in the oil and gas industry and damage to the refinery. The company is a subsidiary of Houston, Texas-based Transworld Oil USA, a holding company for oil, gas, and refining services.
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet, doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
