layoff and a raise
From the good money after bad file - Bankruptcy judge approves Solyndra bonuses - Yahoo! News

Quote:
A bankruptcy judge on Wednesday approved close to $370,000 in bonuses for 20 employees of Solyndra LLC, a solar panel manufacturer that received a half-billion dollar loan from the federal government before declaring bankruptcy.

Bankruptcy doesn't extinguish all contractual obligations. Yeah, the gov't made a bad investment there. Does anyone ever talk about the good investments?

PS -- I'm long solar stocks. The Solyndra mini-crisis caused a nice dip in value in Nov-Dec -- should clean up nicely inside of a year.

Well, when you poke your nose into things you have NO business to be in, working out is expected. Poor results are NOT expected nor should they be accepted. You can't even mind your own business and you are nosing into somebody else's? Perhaps they should stick to simpler tasks and not trying to pick winners and losers.
