<prompt> Human: I have been an employee at my Internet company for 6 years. It was a small family owned rural Internet provider3,000 customers. We were bought by a bigger family owned company35,000 customers. I was the sales manager and made 17 an hour plus commission. The new company that bought us is taking me and the rest of the staff 5 total to their company. My questionadvice is that I make more than anyone at the new company for what I assume my job will be. Has anyone ever been in this situation? I am scared because I just bought a new home 6 months ago and I have 1 kid and a wife. I am scared that they are going to take me on with my current pay and have me train their staff what all I would do and then let me go. They do not know the programs we use so it will take a solid month of training to get anyone up to speed with all of our programs. Should I be worried or just go over there and kick ass at my job?  <response>: 1. Kick ass at the new job. Show them that you are worth your pay.2. Star job hunting, now!3. Ask your new manager what is up. Not every manager is a scumbag who will hide the truth until the day they tell you to not bother coming in. My guess is that this is still a small company!
