Of course in your case that's true Debbie, (grovel)
but it ain't always like that..
I remember one dump I worked for a while ago having a round of redundancies, and one useless little liability dodged the bullet by changing jobs-then that job ceased to exist, and they moved departments.
A week later a new round was announced, and I heard a manager say "I'll get the little blank this time, he's got nowhere left to hide!"
"Redundancy" can be a euphemism..
Another one to watch for is someone being put on a "special project", that normally means their fate is sealed.
