Re: Forget it! As much as I know Hob, he does not need anyone backing him up or sticking up for him. But try to imagine building something from nothing, then to have it taken out of your hands, then given back with little control over upgrade and innovation. Then to be forced. Yes i said and i meant forced to move elsewhere if you want to keep your job. This means losing what you know, what you've been comfortable with for the last several years, all the friendships and relationships you have developed in your years, having to move away from your family (for those who do not know coudersport, everyone and i do mean everyone who worked there lived around family, that is why they lived there or around that area or had close friends that made it like a family) all to have it ripped out and thrown away from the new company that you have to work for now if you really want to stay in the same field or just to pay your bills because in this area unless you have a degree, you are lucky to get anything that pays more than $8 an hour. For a lot of the 500 who lost there jobs at Adelphia in Coudersport just over a year ago are now working and living in other areas of the country just to stay ahead. For a lot of those people every day they have to go to work at the place that dismantled our 500 person family without those other 499 people that made it a great family and I would think Poppa Hob would agree with that. Where can you go to work everyday and honestly say I like my supervisors, I like my managers and trust that you can go to ANY of them with a problem (personal or business) and know that they or anyone else in that company will help you if they can. So yeah for the most part it will never be over as it will be a constant reminder everyday of what was. However we can do without more bad news from this issue as there is nothing more the US Courts will do. Although wouldn't it be possible to petition for a Presidential Pardon from Bush before he leaves office at least for John? I mean he can't do any worse on his way out right? Also for the Sabres fan, Honestly I am a die hard Sabres fan but if this this happen then who would the owner be and what would they have done to the team. Also if your die hard about Buffalo teams how about paying more attention to where Ralph wants to ship the Bills and care more about this because obviously the Sabres are here to stay, just wish they wouldn't ship most of the best players elsewhere. -- I am the Coyote |
