End of ownership ???

Twelve years working for the same employer !
Twelve years of metamorphosis - from being a small nimble innovative company to large diversified corporation.

This company has been generous in handing our "Stock Option Grants" in the past. The theme is - when you own shares, you behave like a shareholder. In other words like a part-owner of the company and do the right thing.

I kinda believed in that when I was younger ;) So, today I am trying to think hard to see if something has changed.

I ve sold the last lot of stock options I could sell. I am holding NO shares what so ever and there is no possibility of stock options being granted in future too. Its done !

Now, is this end of the sense of "ownership" ???
