That would probably be just Arkansas. Actually, if we could get that to
happen only in Arkansas, then things would be a lot better. I think a few
of us would chip in and support your layoffs if that could be made to
happen. Do you folks have any openings down there for more managers with
that mindset? We could probably ship you a couple as soon as the guys in
the back make a couple crates for them. The secretary (never underestimate
the value of a good secretary) has already baited them with some cake. With
any luck, they'll remember the air holes this time....

Optimistically, the management sees some new business coming down the pike.
Pessimistically, they subscribe to the idea that the more they can make, the
more they can sell, regardless of actual demand and elasticity.
Realistically, I'm not sure where they are.
