Effects of the US Economy

Over the weekend, my workplace removed over 150 flourescent light bulbs from the office area.  We showed up this morning wondering if we were running on generator power.  Yet, even with such extreme cost-cutting, we still have employees talking about things like sports and their hobbies.  These people don't understand that our lights have been removed because we can't afford the electric bill.  Business is very slow right now.  Go hard or go home!
