Thread regarding BNSF Railway layoffs

I know everybody and their grandmother are worried about layoffs right now, but there is a simple way to reduce the level of stress for similar situations in the future: create your own job security by making yourself easily employable. Work on your resume to see where your skills are applicable within and outside of the industry, work on expanding your skill-set (there are so many free options these days that you really don't have an excuse not to do it,) keep networking... No job will offer you job security these days, but you can help yourself by creating your own. Just my two cents.
