Neither is it difficult to understand that, when the situation changes, the definition of “useful” also changes.

That's code for, out of the millions laid off, those left behind, will work less hours, work 3 times harder, for less money, and less benefits etc...

For those left behind, the employers want full time workers at part time wages.

This is no secret.

BTW Dave...It's getting so bad out in work land, their is a rather large employer who just laid off lots of people....They were required to provide water for their employees which they did for years....Recently they were going to remove several of their water dispensers to save money, like those Sparkletts things..... An employee complained, so the employer found out they didn't have to provide those little cups and stopped supplying them, hoping no one would drink the water...No joke.

The employees all showed up with their own cups...

It's *really* ugly out there.
