I'm really sorry for all those people. Nothing worse than losing your job. I hope they at least get a good severance. It's a pretty mis-run company that is now having a lot of human collateral damage. Really sad.
Many things worse than losing your job. Health issues, incarceration, serious problems with your kids, and betraying an old friend by luring him to Cloud City and turning him over to Boba Fett all come to mind...
