Oh wow, this thread is still going on strong
But I think he could have handled this better than what he did to his now former employees. He took their jobs away prior to Christmas in the middle of pandemic.
I also got booted from my job because of this COVID thing, and I know how hard it is to get something else.
Also, not only he did that, but he actually stayed there as a puppet of his new owner...
I totally agree with you.There seems to be a lot of opinions on this, but let's remember LT could have just decided to retire completely, close the business, liquidate the machinery, location, remaining stock, any materials anjd the intellectual property piece by piece and told employees "thanks, good luck, today's your last day" and taken off to parts unknown. He took the offer he could get which isn't always the offer you want. I know we'd all like to see the animated corpse of LT still running CS 50 years from now and dodging rebounding machete swords but the man gets to retire when he wants.
