When things begin to settle down a little, companies will find themselves understaffed, so they will begin hiring. Many of the workers laid off, who had worked themselves up the company ladder will take pay cuts when they are hired again, though. The level of company activity is based on a budget, and the main determinate is expected sales for the budget period. Once sales are projected, the budget for labor, plant and equipment needed to meet expected sales can be determined. There is alway the question of what comes first, the chicken or the egg, so with the economy the question become what comes first, the hiring of workers which put money in thier pocket so they can consume more, or the increased expectation of greater sales, which increases a company's budget of labor. LOL
I'm hoping for some changes to occur within sectors of the economy, such as less spending within the Industrial Military Complex as the economy move from war time military spending towards a more peaceful and prosperous private sector. I still believe in a strong military, but one that uses strength to deter aggression, rather than one that makes vulgar displays of its power though preemptive war.
