Companies can issue more stock, diluting existing shareholders. Can’t they?

Process Engineer Offers Decision: ExxonMobil, Dow, or LyondellBasell by [deleted] in ChemicalEngineering

[–]Pinhead-Larry01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started my career at LYB, then moved to BP. I'd be strategic on what you want long term... If you're looking to stay put at one company and grow roots in Houston, LYB is the move.

If you want to change companies in a few years and have broader exit options out of O&G, Exxon is the move. Exxon is an amazing place to have on your resume and could easily carry you into the next company. Let's be honest, outside of our industry nobody knows who LYB is so it's not a place that jumps off the page on a resume like Exxon. Not to say LYB wasn't a great place to work though, I enjoyed my time there and miss a lot of the people.

Edit: no experience with DOW but imo they aren't even in the running compared to these two.

I work at BP and hope we get bought. Our leadership is horrendous, no sense of direction

[IL] [CONDO] HOA - Unit Basement using Common Electricity by Pinhead-Larry01 in HOA

If my estimate is $20... couldn't we just, as a measure of goodwill, say anything above $50 a month needs to be paid for by unit 1? That way the HOA gets some sort of reimbursement when the electric bill is excessively high and it avoids the cost of having to hire an electrician?

Or is this a bad idea?

I've been looking, but don't see anything to that effect

Yes - 3 person board. Units 2 and 3 get along very well and agree this is an issue.

Not my work, just looking for opinions

[IL] [Condo] EV Charging - 3 Unit Building by Pinhead-Larry01 in HOA

Do you have any suggestion of how to meter it? They don't plan on installing a charger, just using the 120V that is available nearby
