Wow Mike that is just plain cold.
I have always worked for others, and when I do I give 100% to the company, for that I expect some sort of loyalty from the company.
When things have gotten slow the companies I have worked for have found things to keep me busy and on the payroll. I have split wood, organized stock, once I even helped do a engine swap on a 40' fishing boat.
I have experienced a layoff only once while employed as a full time electrician and that was after a long slow down. By that point it was down to laying off the owners brother or me.
