And did they even pay their workers? A local operation, it turns out, did not pay their employees when they skipped town.

I doubt it, but I don't know for sure. I do know their turnover was extremely high, given how many applicants showed up at my office looking for a job with them.

I was just lucky I was "uphill" from the flood they caused--a few of my office neighbors weren't so lucky. I do remember it took over a week to dig the office out from the garbage they left behind, another few days to fumigate (I remember that they also had to call in a pest control company and spray around the floor), then another few days to recarpet the place, repair and repaint. They put the furniture store below them out of business for two days while they mopped up and cleaned up after the collapsed ceiling.

I also remember almost fainting when I opened the phone bill for $9K+ (we had the same phone co.), thinking it was MY phone bill.

Where they moved to--and under what name--is anyone's guess, but whereever they've moved to, they'll do the same thing.
