The Hermiller Files - 1991


The Hermiller Files - 1991


It is called the “Alyeska Pipeline Service Company Covert Operations”. A time when the 5th Floor of Bragaw lost touch with reality and engaged in abuse upon “worker rights”, through a “Spy” campaign targeting innocent workers. They got caught and had to face the 102nd U.S. Congress with “lullaby” excuses the reason for violating an individual’s “Privacy”, that which is guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution. With Alaska a state of the Union for about 20-years and Don Young still trying to figure out what the Founding Fathers thought of “propeller beanie” caps when it came time for “Oil In”, well things like the 1st Amendment went abused by “Big Oil”, which owns the Alyeska maggot mindset. They fucking “Spied” on us, a Klaus Fuchs reality - I call it a “Season of Treason” and it started way back in 1980. Yes “Oversight Hearings” before the “Committee on Inferior and Insulting Affairs” - House of Representatives. Now I was one employee a victim of that “Uncle Al Get Smart Secret Agent Man Spyman” abuse and found out about it. How so? In 1991, I received an Alyeska Pipeline Service Company “memo” between the then President - James B. Hermiller and Human Resources Rat - Gatling Carr, this from an “anonymous source”. Rat yes, as she let the rabid cat out of the bag that spread like wild-fire I was a “Vocal Union Supporter with a chip on my shoulder” and that branded me for good, it banished any insurmountable career. And so what, if I was indeed affiliated with a concerted effort to drive a Union home, that is also a “right” under the U.S. Constitution. But that Union “vocal support” was by mistaken identity, and I suffered the consequences. It turned out mind you, due the “Spying Game” it morphed into a “Spy verses Spy” as somebody broke into the “Profs” and started unloading stuff of interest to the victims caught in the “illegal” spy web. When I received the correspondence, it didn’t flatter me but angered me, as it was all “lies” and when I fort back, I did receive a letter of apology from Mr. Hermiller, wherein he states that I “was a valued and talented employee and Alyeska benefitted from my 11 plus years of dedicated service”. His words, the dedication thing and way to go Jim what a relief. The problem, well for a time in Uncle Al’s history that coveted position as the “head cheese” on the 5th Floor of Bragaw was an “Owner Company” loanee, so over time the guy doing the apologies is gone, but not the 5th Floor “filth” that engaged in the “lies”, they remain and then have it out for those they hurt and got caught. This is the CarrCarr memo I received and the Hermiller apology:






The sad thing, the only “non lie” was the fact that after almost 11-years of dedicated service with Alyeska from Valdez to Prudhoe Bay to places in between, as penance, as a reward my dedication for doing too good a job was getting sent back to “Pipeline Basic Training”. Now according to Mrs. CarrCarr, it was Morgan Henrie that made that “fuckhead” decision to make me start all over again. And what wasn’t fair, as when I originally attended that required “new hire” introduction indoctrination back on 1979, my partner was Chris Alexander - the son of Alex Two-Chairs. And when I attended that “Training” arranged by PHD Morgan Henrie for the second time, well I didn’t see Chris so felt it so unfair - what gives? So I quit, due the demotion back to “square one” for doing too good a job! OK, I only quit because when I returned to Pump Station#1 and re-assigned to work with the “Night Shift Rover”, to learn how to change the “shit bags” but at the same time SCADA and the Pipeline management wanted me to be readily available to help the “Measurement Team” I had put together to take care of the “Custody Transfer”, enough was enough. Yup, cleaning the latrines and maintaining the cash register - felt like a 7-Eleven employee thanks Jerry and Morgan for the promotion! See, Alyeska was good at taking advantage of talent then…wait, let me explain and let me tell it like it was. I was hired on in 1979 and was promoted from Technician Level I to Technician Level VI in only one year. This was of record a “record” in achievement according to the Valdez “Human Resources”. The merits of such advancement up the rank-and-file required the successful completion of the company sponsored “Computer Based Training” and sign-off on progressively difficult tasks by management. Now for an Alyeska ”Instrument Technician”, the level of difficulty between the “Marine Terminal” and a “Pumping Station”, well “Custody Transfer” verses a “shit bag”! So it was a “Technician Progression” that had teeth, that held merit, that to advance it takes dedication. And I was also elevated to “Lead Technician” over many other technicians that had been involved in the “Terminal” since that “Oil In”. And then as “Lead Measurement Technician” when Pump Station#1 was overtaken by SCADA because of ruffled Peacock feathers and the “Custody Transfer” was in a total state of disrepair, due a tail wagging the dog philosophy. I gave 100% plus some and in the end a “shit bag” for my retirement. Goes to show what happens when somebody thinks they are worthy a PHD and will fuck their fellow man to get ahead. I forgot, over a dozen “Letters of Appreciation/Commendation for Excellent Performance” from the “Marine Terminal Superintendent”, the SCADA Superintendent, Company President, this supervisor and that supervisor, even a letter in my file from an ARCO field auditor assigned to Valdez - to monitor Alyeska. In one caption such comments: “has the potential to advance far within the company”! But once branded a Jimmy Hoffa follower or a Junior Leslie fan, forget about a future with a company that enjoys “spying” on its workers and a management that “shoots and shits on the messenger”. And we would  find out the “mole” in the organization, a guy we kicked out of Valdez because of incompetence behind an engineer’s degree because he failed to understand “parallel resistance” and low and behold, rat-finking will move you up that ladder really fast! But in 1997, as I remained a pain in the ass for Uncle Al, to get rid of the so-called “stigma” of my Jimmy Hoffa days, BPO Ted wanted to put me in the movies and make a big star out of me, the biggest fool…get lost was my sentiment so I did. Matter of fact, after “quitting” I became a poet and one-man band, homeward bound and wrote a poem called “Bragaw Deadend Whores”.
