>(Although I remember there's a saying to the effect that the survivors of a cutback aren't much better off than those who are laid off.)
Except, I suppose, that the survivors still have a job, a paycheck, medical and dental insurance, retirement accounts (at least in the state of Texas for state employees), long and short term disability insurance, paid holidays, and vacation time.
Other than that, they're probably just the same as the ones who got canned.
