Who do you think bought the bank and what happens to us employees?
I would think it has to be one of the major issuers. If so, I think the Lincoln office is probably done for. If it is a private firm and keeps a similar deal to whoever Cabela's is sold to, there is a chance we still have a job. But what happens if... — read more
