I would not trust anything mgmt says about a merger or acquisition until it is stated publicly. Anything before that is just rumor. I'll believe a merger when I see it.

Question - are we getting per diem for recurrent at the Lodge? To justify the miserable one choice highly refined carbohydrate mac and cheese and chicken leg $12 dinner? Or the $8 powered egg breakfast. I see the "deal" here. Lots of low nutritional value bulky food for the price ("but you get a dessert and soda for that"). Gee thanks, tack on an order of diabetes after three days would ya? First time here . Can't imagine 6 weeks here for initial. Better choces at the Hampton Inn in Boston. No need for shuttle: good. Miserable choices as far as meals go. Because the deep fried tilapia in coconut butter or the chihuahua looking pork loin with 2 cups of white rice is the bomb. Well actually the kielbasa special covered in gravy is the bomb for a 4 hour sim. Let's just open a White Castles and call it a day.
