The elephant and the mouse

The elephant - If LANS, as unit of Bechtel, is expected to make a 20% profit on its income ($2,200,000,000), this is about $400,000,000 in profit and if LANS is currently running about $300,000,000 in the red, where is the $700,000,000 difference going to come from? This difference is the salaries and benefits of thousands of staff.

The mouse - If you work at the Lab now, what is your best strategy to protect yourself, your career, and your family? How does this best strategy depend on your skill set, your age, your family situation, and whether you chose TCP1 or TCP2? What is the cost of not figuring out your best strategy and executing it? (Answer to the third question - about $500,000 per family, much of it in lost value of real estate)
