I am Technically Unemployed Now

As of today my company has shut it's doors and is no longer in business so I guess I am unemployed as of midnight tonight.

On the other hand as of 12:01am on Monday there will be a new company opening up and they have given me an offer of employment. I have looked it over and accepted the offer.

Good thing is I don't even have to move, change offices or even go to a different location.

Actually we have finally been bought out by Hormel Corp and they take over as of Monday.

That sucks, but at the same time that's good. Like everyone else, I hope the transition is smooth as can be. God luck.
