Sigh! Got the bad news today...my company is being bought out by a much larger company and even though it is not always bads news for everyone it will be for me as I run the IT shop in my small company and we use a lot of small business software. I have been through these things before and in a case like this the business will be absorbed into the larger business' IT systems.
The transaction is scheduled to go through at the end of October which means that I will have a couple of months transition before I am out on the street - again.
I'm pretty despondent. The job market is not in good shape right now to end up without a job.

So sorry.

Hope you land on your feet - or better that your new company decides to keep your department as is.

Thanks for the well wishes everyone!
It's not likely they will keep any of the employees. They are out of Kansas and are just buying the competition, customer base and the product.
So...I'm planning on moving home to Austin and finding work there. I think I've had all of the big D that I can take anymore.
I'm gonna think positive and expect next Halloween to be spectacular!Spectorized
