Oh, one more piece of advice while I'm thinking of it:

Network, network, network. Never stop networking.

No matter how long you've been at your company, you never know how deep the furloughs will go. After 9/11, USAir furloughed all the way back to 1989 (12 years of service).

As time goes on, your contacts in other parts of the industry - and other industries - will fade if you don't make a concerted effort to keep up with people. Don't burn any bridges, because you never know who you may need to call and beg for a job.
