Another bummer!

Since it was Veteran's Day, the grandkids had the day off from school so my wife took two of them to the movies today. Of course, I stayed home because we did not want to risk having me catch something from someone at the theater. So, another little outing that I could not participate in! I'll be glad when this is all over!

I decided to call my company today to see if I could get any clarification as to who I actually worked for - my current company or the company that is in the process of buying us out. At present, they say that I am on the active rolls of my current company - but I am noted as being on long term disability.

However, they have no clue as to what is going to happen to me whenever the doctor clears me to "work" again. Since that is a minimum of 3 months away(most likely more), HR took the "prudent" way out and said to call them as my "return to work" date approaches. I have no idea what will change between now and then but I have to admit that the past year has been a pretty volatile one one at work with a huge number of lay-offs and the sale of my division.

If I am still working for my present company when this is all over, I won't even have a place to report to!

Stay tuned, this is only going to get more interesting as time goes by...
