At the risk of falling into the anecdotal evidence trap, the store i'm working at is one of the busiest and most profitable for the company across the board, and yet my boss is currently grappling with corporate who keeps trying to tighten the purse strings on wage allowances for the store (so not cutting jobs, but cutting hours). I think it's just a perpetual war.

We're talking about the low end of the market, remember. Further into "white collar job" territory, there are a lot of jobs that a company can "create" for the right person (which is why networking is so important), but the point being that companies' demands for work are far more flexible the higher up the ladder you go. Lower down, it's more fixed in that regard.

Well sure.... Obamacare is causing a lot of employers to reduce workforce.  

That's one of those events that reduces hours.

All you need is 30 hours a week to be considered full time under the law.
