re: Anyone have experience with their company getting bought out?

For me, at the admin level, a company buyout was a great big scoop of HELL. I would explain why, but you guys would never read 87 pages of post. The shortest I can write is it was the worst thing in a 50 year career that cost me a 200 mile move and finding a new job. I came out ok in the end but for years I said if I passed a certain person in the sold out company on the interstate and they were in a burning wreck, I would only stop to watch them burn up. Shame on me. Even that is only added to the pile of stuff that makes me feel bad about the sell out.
