Corporate Signs of Doom

One of the first indicators at my job was an e-mail saying that the guy who'd watered the plants for the whole company for years had been let go and that from now on, employees would have to water their own plants. Not long after that, a bunch of us were laid off. And not long after that, the company converted to a holding company so it could get a share of the bailout money. (More people got laid off after that too.)
