Coal Miner Layoffs

From the Wall Street Journal:
Murray Energy Corp., the largest privately held coal miner in the U.S., has warned that it may soon undertake one of the biggest layoffs in the sector during this time of low energy prices.
In a notice sent to workers this week, Murray said it could lay off as many as 4,400 employees, or about 80% of its workforce, because of weak coal markets. The company said it anticipates “massive workforce reductions in September.”
Should you meditate digging coal
the end result is just a hole.
And what makes it worse,
the hole's in your purse --
and you'll be tossed out on the dole.
