Great Relief

After many months of back-and-forth, my company finally closed out a deal to a buyer. They carried over 90% of the staff and secured some very good career opportunities for those of us that remain.

More than anything, the waiting is over. For the past 4 months my fellow managers and I have been meeting with potential buyers, going through financials, COGS, product margins - you name it. All the while, not able to tell the staff what is up until the last minute. Now it's done and over. The PR announcements have gone out and we can move on with life.

Only down side is relocation to Colorado is no longer an option - so the wife and I are stuck here for at least another 90 days. Meh.

All done. Thanks for reading.

That should take a huge load off. Enjoy and relax a bit.

Congrats and I know you must have had a big sigh of relief? Why are you "stuck" for another 90 days?

Thanks everyone. I feel i'm stuck because i (with another key player) want to see how this new place operates. If we dont like it, we move on. Day 2 was challenging and I am going to san diego thursday and friday it seems.
