A couple of friends of mine are managers at these businesses with "crappy, low paying jobs" and consensus is among their peers in the food/retail industry is not to hire people with an O&G background.

They all know that oil is bound to bounce back and these former O&G people will leave immediately, so there's no point in wasting time hiring them

so i feel for these laid off O&G workers because not only can they not only get low paying jobs, but there's this myth like you're perpetuating that they're entitled or too lazy to settle for those jobs
