The 'bosses' are panicking. They're going, 'Oh, cut back, lose staff. That's the way forward. That'll save money.' Will it? Who's to say that hiring staff won't save money in the long run?

The ‘bosses’ are panicking. They’re going, ‘Oh, cut back, lose staff. That’s the way forward. That’ll save money.’ Will it? Who’s to say that hiring staff won’t save money in the long run?
