Hard to feel loyalty

I was talking to a friend who works at a huge conglomerate. He told me he always checks the paper and the internet to see what companies are looking to hire.

I asked him why. After all, he made a nice living. Why wasn't he showing loyalty?

He had a good answer.

His company had gone through six lay-offs in the last year. It's hard to figure you have a future with all that going on.

Good point. They probably would have been better off doing a huge lay-off instead of pacing them to occur every two months or so.
