They will not close down Irvine campus

Whole livelihoods will be forever changed after the Pfizer-Allergan merger. Below are some of those changes.

(1) Loss of that beautiful home due to not being able to meet the mortgage payments on EDD and/or part-time job at Wal-Mart.
(2) Not being able to send your kids to private school.
(3) Not being able to meet the payments on your Mercedes/BMW/Porche, etc.
(4) Not being able to go out to the fine dining places, go on vacations, or even that occasional movie. Food fare consists of cheap frozen dinners on sale, sack of potatoes, rice, ramen noodles, vienna sausages, dinty moore stew, and cat/dog food as staples.
(5) Spending nearly all day on Linkedin linking up with everyone you know that is currently employed and in a power position to put a plug in for you.
(6) Calling in sick at your part-time minimum wage job in order to go to that interview that happens to be on a weekday just as your shift starts.
(7) Asking your friends and relatives to spot you emergency cash for gas to go to that interview.
(8) Moving into a rented basement or room for cheap until things get better.
(9) Apply for WIC
(10) Get that occasional government block of cheese and taking your elderly "mother", "father", "uncle", or "aunt" to a free seniors luncheon getting extra food for yourself and your family.
(11) Endless frustration that ensues when tripped up answering those open-ended behavioral interview questions that ultimately result in no job offer.
(12) Having to explain the reason you are out of work for a year or more to every potential employer and they do not make the job offer to you.
(13) When a job offer is made, it is at least half of what you made previously in pharma with half of the benefits. You decline and take a job with half the stress for the same pay as the cut-rate pharma firm offered as the assistant manager of Wal-Mart.
(14) When at a pharma interview, the hiring manager mentions at least 10 other people he has interviewed from your previous firm for the same position you are applying for. That is, you are competing with at least 10 of your former peers as well as other for that one cake position.

 

Pretty much except many people have lots of shares of AGN (legacy), and those shares might turn out to be even more PFE shares that pay a dividend. So those big salaries might be gone, but now the difference is guys like me can sit on my ass and reap the dividend and make the same coin I was making before and not have to do one damn thing but make sure my golf bag has extra balls and stocked with beer. So bring on the merger. Can't happen soon enough.

 

The key is "...might turn out to be even more PFE shares....."

 

Correct. If deal gets inked then 11.3 times more!

 

deal is not happening. Actavis worth more on its own

 

And where is this information coming from?

 

This deal will be determined by shareholders not idiots with opinions either way!

 

Bitter much?
