My company might get sold. I might be out of a job. It won't happen before next Spring, if it does happen. It really sucks that I had to read about this in the trade press before hearing it from corporate (and discuss it with dad this afternoon), but that's the way these things tend to work.
If I AM out of a job come spring, it's not that big a deal. I prefer to work my ass off for a paycheck because that was what I was raised to do as a kid born in the 60s, but I was also raised to squirrel away a huge chunk of my earnings along the way, so if it happens, I have a really good cushion.
We'll have to wait and see. If I can bail out earlier, and sign on with another company, good. If not, it doesn't really matter. At my age, a steady paycheck is very nice, and I'll work my ass off for it, but it's not the key to the kingdom.

I hope it all works out for ya!
I hate the whole corporate culture today. There is no such thing as loyalty or permanance. Let's just sell every fucking company to the Chinese so we can buy their products until our money runs out. Sounds like a science fiction novel. I hope you survive the cut. I'm gonna worry now.
