I understand fully the benefit to voluntary reduced hours but most people when times get tough want to work more even though they are much more willing to take reduced hours in lieu of not having employment. We currently have 135,000 Unemployed in Las Vegas and even though the Gaming Industry accounts for only 20% of the workforce, there simply isn't enough work to even cut back hours.
