This is the probably the worst mistake that I’ve seen in the recent past.

Hat Tip: Valleyvag

The economy is at an all time low and companies would have to cut down costs to survive and to ensure that the financial losses are cut down. Here are some signs that will help you evaluate if you are in the hit list or not. If yes, I suggest you start working on your resume right away.

1. Have you been asked to take an unpaid vacation?
2. Has your boss been fired ?
3. If your department is being downsized ?
4. Have you been given a promotion with a position of lesser responsibility?
5. Have you been in the bad books of your mentor / superior / supervisor ?
6. You don’t have friends in office
7. You have not got any encouraging words from your manager during the performance appraisal process
8. Your company has been indicating reorganize its strategy and promoting outsourcing
9. You have been given projects with a strict time line and is impossible to achieve
10. Your subordinate gets a mail for what you are responsible for!

If most of the questions are moving towards the negative front, I suggest you start looking at alternate options.
