I don't believe anything could be furthere from the truth. There is <zero percent chance of this being true.
That would work out very well; we could possibly see "packages" and be done with all of this nonsense.
Hey, when you learn the FUR method of work (Flying Under the Radar) you'll have fun working here. Here's a strategic imperative of FUR: Faking Calls and Activities. You give your manager fake reports and he thinks you're working. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Love Flying Under the Radar!
Hey! I was talking to a guy at a meeting who was telling me all about his flying under the radar and how it means security here. Did you steal it from him? Because I don't think he'd be posting it here. It sounds like it's kind of a secret but that his region all knows about it. We were talking about it, the guy has it down to a science. I won't say his name but if you are him give a hint so I know it's you.
From the Amgen board: Please review my earlier posts about the acquisition. As I mentioned, this will not be a merger of "equals". The JnJ acquisition is still in the works, with a targeted close in 2Q16. There will be significant scrutiny on this deal given some of the overlapping TAs. One of JnJ options will be to sell of any assets that may get regulators antsy. This is not a matter of "if". It's all about the "when". I wish I could provide some better news and more detailed updates, but legal and corporate development are playing this one close to the vest. It is not out of the question that Amgen might make an acquisition on its own. Any deal that we make will need to be announced prior to the JnJ deal becoming confirmed. Hence the "cone of silence". -SB
I believe you need to be committed. JNJ being acquired by Amgen. That is some really funny shit. If you nut cases must make things up at least be sure to have the players right. In any event there are no mergers just flat purchases and very few make any sense in the mega merger category. JNJ buys bit players for the future returns of pipelines. Just crazy people writing crazy things here.
