Just Wednesday, we had a big group meeting/get-together. Plans were made, the future looked glorious, things were falling into place and it looked as if I'd finally be getting the day shift I'd long hoped for.
...then 'Black Monday' came...
Verizon Wireless buys Rural Cellular
Verizon Wireless said today it has agreed to buy Rural Cellular Corp. for $2.67 billion in cash and assumed debt.
Now, it's hard not to suffix every plan that's made with a "not like it matters". I'm not that concerned about things, as I'd been passively looking into other opportunities for a while now. Also, it's not as if this whole thing is going to finalize anytime in 2007. It could be late-2008 before all this goes through.
One can't fault anyone involved in the deal. Even as I work and do my part in making whatever business I'm working for better, I'm still looking out for myself and mine. One can hardly blame anyone else for wanting to get out of this and make some money doing so...
...it just kind of sucks...
Okay, Enough of That...
XKCD absolutely rocks in every way imaginable (and surely it rocks in some ways I haven't even fathomed yet)
