It always tickles me to hear people fearing a layoff.....I was laid off 9 times in 1990 and I never even thought about it "ruining" me....in fact I have probably been laid off at least 50 times in the last 32 years and it always works out...hell I have even laid myself off twice.....of course I have also quit about as many jobs when something better came along and have been fired once....

Being laid off isn't really a bad thing if you work in the construction industry (usually it means you helped finish the job and you'll soon be hired on for another one), but it has the potential to be devastating in most other industries.
