I've never been laid off with a video, but after going through more than my
fair share (4), I do know some of the warning signs that there'll be layoffs
very soon. Most of the times people seem to get be blindsided that they're
the one who'll be shown the door, but if you're observant, you can spot the
grim reaper before he arrives.

1. When you try to access your business email after hours your account is
disabled.
2. Extra security guards suddenly show up.
3. Your manager's manager is icing down the beer at 10AM. The larger the
number of coolers, the larger the layoffs.
