I have always had the philosophy of: "You're going to be at work for at least 8 hours, one way or another. Why not make the most of it? No need to complain!"

If the company knows your value, you have a better chance of staying on opposed to someone else. I would also add try to update skills.

Another thing to work on is friendliness and sense of humor in the workplace. When tough choices have to be made and morale may be suffering, being known for friendliness and a light heart can be a big benefit.
