>What's the company going to do if the worker balks? Hire nobody? Not going to happen.

These days, yes. They get rid of Bob and make Andy do his and Bob's work (with no extra pay, of course), promising to replace Bob over the next 6 months while the company actually has a hiring freeze.

I wish more "assholes" would realize this before trying to turn against their peers.
