If you were one of 11,000 employees (mostly maintainers) that got a pink slip in the mail saying you will likely lose your job in the next 3 months, what do you think those employees will do? And none of those pink slip recipients were pilots. Is it possible that those scheduled to be cut will lack motivation?

AMR expects about 4,400 job cuts, warns 11,000 - Yahoo! Finance

If the Air Force told you that you've been RIF'd at the 15 1/2 year point, how would you react?
