Maybe you answered your own question, because they are the biggest and this has the been the coldest winter on record in a long time they were caught shorthanded, not prepared, whatever you want to call it...I just don't know...
As far as other companies picking up employees of Fullers should the unthinkable happen...Your probably right, BUT I don't think any employee ever wants to start all over again and lose time and grade, vacation, (pension maybe) and all the other benefits accrued by a long term employee...
Like I said previously, I just hope this all works out for all parties involved, the business "Fred Fuller Oil", their employees and those they service.
I just know I can't be the only one who was happy this past year with Fuller...

Commendable thoughts, I think we all share them. But maybe Mr Fuller should have thought of these things before he decided to let his business "go south" twice this winter. This does not in any way seem to be an industry wide issue and it doesn't seen feasible that the issues are related to the size of the company. This appears to be a mismanagement issue.
I'm not a Fuller customer, but if I were, especially after this second debacle, I would be searching for another supplier.
I believe there is a procedure in place to recover any prepaid funds.
