Yep, and got out too. Nobody thought it would ever get back up over $20 again back then.
Make no mistake, these huge companies have no loyalty. It was an important lesson to learn at a young age.
I worked for Halliburton at the time. They were hiring guys out of college 10-20 at a time. These guys would move down from ND, MT, etc. and buy new houses, pay tax on their vehicles to get LA tags. 6 months later, 2 weeks pay and a handshake.
