welcome to the world the rest of us live in

I've experienced what you are going through first hand from both your current position and all the levels below it on more than one occasion, you have my sympathy

short of starting your own company there is absolutely nothing you can do to change this, it will happen every time the red ink starts to appear on the company balance sheet, the company will be restructured, staff will be lost and somehow the work which could only be done by X employees before will now magically be done by a fraction of that number and woe betide anyone that fails in this, the balance sheet will go back to using black ink and the board will give themselves a bonus and a pat on the back

now you know why I'm such a cynic
