There's barely anything left to manage at head office so layoffs are indeed no surprise...

If the rest of them haven't ramped-up serious job searches they're crazy.

Could you imagine being the last employees in that office? Morale must be at an all time low there. Last one out, turn off the lights. Eddie L won’t be able to pay the electric bill.

Hey, they could always clear out their now unneeded office furniture and supplies by holding a Blue Light Special... ;)
