I honestly think some companies are just using this as cover to fire people/cut jobs they've been thinking about cutting anyways.

I have an insurance agency for one of the large national companies which I perfer not to mention. Our area Tidewater Va. (thats the Norfolk / Va Beach area) has actually not lost any jobs with this down turn in the economy. Thats not saying that people have not been laid off but we have been creating jobs just as fast as people are loosing their jobs.
