That BLOWS!
I had the same kind of thing happen years back, where they sold the Internet provider where I worked.
The amount of lies right to the face were astounding.
Plus they took almost $300.00 from our pay and explained it by telling us that the new company took over a few days ago and they didn't have any responsibility to pay us.
I was pretty pissed, so now you have a little clue of how it could have been worse. :-)
