despite the general downturn, is it reasonable to assume that your company couldn't do what they do if everyone in your department was gone? in other
words, might four out of nine be it?

I haven't worked steadily since like November. Last Monday was the first day I worked in over a month. Still don't know when the next job will be.
Hopefully things will be getting better for all of us soon.
