Twenty-five years ago, my nice, quiet, little Fortune 250 was "merged" with another Fortune 250 called Meritor, which subsequently went full-corporate-raider on my company, and pillaged it until all that was left was the carcass, which they then sold to PE. In the 3 years that they put on their show, I would occasionally work at a place they had renovated in downtown Detroit. It was a model turnaround! The city is recovering! The CEO, Larry Fuckin Yost(1), won "CEO of the year" from... someone or something. And, yeah, it was nice, but they had to put 12' fencing around it, and I was told not to leave the property on foot. Across the street were a row of derelict houses. On my first visit, I saw a semi tractor parked on the street in front of them. I asked why he would stop there, on the street, in front of those houses, and was told that the driver was likely getting a blowjob from a crack whore. I guess little has changed in the decades since. 1) I'm guessing at his middle name.
