We aren't in the 80s right now. By the time we actually do get there you'll have moved on and almost forgotten about this job.
I don't know what field you're in, but there seems to be work available everywhere right now. Obviously I can't guarantee anything, but I find it damn hard to believe that anyone worth anything right now is getting laid off. If you're just a slacker that takes it easy at work and doesn't contribute to the greater good of the company than I'd be worried and stay where you are, but if not? Move on. These days companies need you a heluva lot more than you need them.
I've had some terrible bosses in the past, and I've moved because of it. It's not worth the trouble. I've got an amazing boss now, and he's the biggest reason why I'm still here. You can get the money and experience anywhere, but a good boss will make your stay with the company soooo much better.
