Setting off to the factory, Vishal had a very bad feeling in his heart.
"I don't know if I can keep my job," he said to his coworker, who had joined him in the carriage.
"I don't think I can either," the coworker replied, his expression listless as if he had lost a lot of sleep over the matter.
Vishal looked at his coworker in surprise, "But you are in the engineering department, how can you be removed? You are essential to the factory."
The coworker shook his head with a deep sense of loss. "In normal times, you would be right, but..."
He stopped mid-sentence and looked at Vishal.
"You already know the answer, don't you? Half a year ago, our company had orders to produce over 200,000 sets of kitchen knives. But after that order was completed, we barely got orders for 50,000 sets."
