The great adventure ends

People don't like change.

I don't like change.

Really.

So, news of major changes at work is not really welcome.

Six and a half years ago, our little bit of the company was slipt off, and thanks to a joint venture with Mitsubishi we formed a new company. And in that time have forged our place in the market.

There has been missteps, but some triumphs too. Plans were in place for the new year and beyond.

And then.

Chnage.

This morning, we were told via mail, that our original empoyers had bought out the company, and in the next two months would be part of the parent company again.

It will probably be for the best, but it seems like a kick in the teeth, all this striving on our own, for the most part, now consigned to the history books.

So, tomorrow we begin our new journey, part of something larger than just us. There will be changes, some will lose their jobs, others will move to new roles. We just don't know what or when.

So, join me in raising a glass to the old company, one that gave me a chance and paid for a large part of Chez Jelltex.
