A short list of possible signs that your company is making budget cuts. Laugh all you want, I've seen them all. |
- Flavored coffee creamer disappears. It is soon replaced with powdered coffee "whitener."
- Breakroom coffee was once something recognizable like Folgers or Maxwell House. Now it's some generic industrial food service brand.
- You can't turn the lights on in your area after hours.
- Tissues in the breakrooms and bathrooms no longer exist, and it's not because your co-workers stole them.
- The cafeteria (which is run by an outside company) downsizes it's offerings.
- Breakroom plasticware utensils are replaced with new cutlery that makes airline plasticware look like it came from a steakhouse.
- You lose your desk phone and switch to your mobile.
- The bathroom soap is no longer scented.
- Someone thought it would be cheaper to get rid of assigned cubes and cram more people into less area with "flexi-space."
- And the worst sign of all, the toilet paper has gone from two-ply to one-ply.
