    A bunch of us said so at the beginning of it we all know when a company buys another company out that they are eventually going to put their blueprint on the company and change things and usually not for the better...

    Yeah I knew it would eventually happen too. I think most did.. Rarely if ever is it for the better. This is the first significant thing that has happened so far other than some minor stuff like fuel solutions.

    I for one can’t believe millis sold out much less to them crooks...i have a friend who worked for gordon out of Washington when heartland bought them and the things he told me heartland did shortly after was not only mind boggling but quite stupid..

    I believe it. I can't speak for the Millis family but I do know they were reaching the age to start thinking about retirement. Not sure if the younger generation didn't want it or what other offers they did or didn't have.

    They still have their hand in it for now which is why I think things haven't changed much yet. Rumor was they had a 2 or 3 year contract to run things and nothing was suppose to change during this transition. I have no idea what the actual situation is.

    Anytime a decent company sells out to a mega turd company it’s not going to end well. The owner retires, kids take over the business. They look to make $$$ and could care less about current employees.
